Professional skill training enhances neural mechanisms, improving performance. Resting-state electroencephalogram (EEG) in rifle shooters revealed correlations between brain network characteristics and shooting accuracy, suggesting EEG as a performance evaluation tool.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Sports Science
  • Cognitive Psychology

Background:

  • Professional skill training is theorized to enhance neural plasticity and efficiency.
  • Trained individuals may display altered resting-state neurophysiological characteristics linked to performance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between resting-state electroencephalogram (EEG) characteristics and shooting performance in trained rifle shooters.
  • To identify potential neural mechanisms underlying expert performance in marksmanship.

Main Methods:

  • Resting-state EEG data were collected from 35 rifle shooters post-training.
  • EEG data were analyzed for correlations with individual shooting performance metrics.
  • Specific EEG characteristics, including neural network coherence and path length, were examined.

Main Results:

  • A significant positive linear correlation was found between shooting performance and beta1 band coherence between electrode channels C3 and T3 (r=0.74, P<4.2×10⁻⁶).
  • A significant positive linear correlation was observed between shooting performance and the characteristic path length of the resting-state theta band brain network (r=0.56, P<0.0005).

Conclusions:

  • Resting-state EEG characteristics, specifically beta1 coherence and theta band network path length, are significantly correlated with shooting performance.
  • These findings suggest potential neural markers for evaluating and predicting shooting expertise.
  • EEG analysis offers a novel, non-invasive method for assessing skill acquisition and performance in sports.
