Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the changes in performance duration during motor tasks, which includes the cognitive cues (cue and mixed cue) of elite badminton athletes. The reaction time of 20 Turkish U-19 badminton national team athletes, 10 males (Mage=17.13±1.45) and 10 females (Mage=16.43±1.40) were determined by The FitLight Trainer™. Significant differences were found in favor of cue and mixed cue protocols for male badminton athletes (p<0.05). Cue and mixed cue protocols are completed faster than the random protocol for female badminton players (p<0.05). This study demonstrates that elite badminton athletes perform postural control adjustments automatically during the motor task. They require minimal less cognitive effort than they need to be minimally considered.
