Abstract

This investigation was conducted to determine if anticipation of coincidence as measured by the Bassin timer relates to “real world” skill of ball batting and to investigate further sex differences in perceptual-motor skills. 24 varsity athletes from a Midwest university's baseball and softball teams were tested on the Bassin timer and their batting averages were obtained from their respective coaches. A nonsignificant correlation suggests that the task on the Bassin timer is different from the anticipation of coincidence in hitting a softball or baseball. Evidence suggested that prior experience rather than sex may contribute to differences between men and women in perceptual-motor skills.
