Abstract
Abstract Basketball players' visual and neurological characteristics may affect their sports performance. In this paper, 100 basketball players and 100 nonathletes received motion vision and a neurological efficiency tests. The experimental stimulus was to determine whether a ball was in the picture. The relevant visual data were obtained by an eye tracker. The brain area activity data were obtained by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The data were processed and analyzed. The results showed that the reaction time of group A (basketball players) was 526.78 ± 75.36 ms, and the correct rate was 94.12 ± 3.45%, both of which were better than group B (nonathletes). The fixation duration and fixation frequency of group A were 204.77 ± 40.23 ms and 1.67 ± 0.41 times, suggesting good fixation stability, and group A activated fewer brain areas than group B. The experimental results verify that basketball players have better target capture ability and higher neural efficiency while consuming fewer neural resources.
