Abstract

Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the nonlinear movement anticipation test with two specific skills in badminton sport based on an ecological psychology approach.
Methods: 20 young men, 10 members of Tehran Youth Badminton Team and 10 physical education students who just passed the badminton-1 course participated in two coincidence anticipation timing tests. The tests included performing one coincidence anticipation-timing task with the same conditions in service and drop skills. For data analysis, two independent and two dependent't' tests were used with the adjusted significance level (P≤0.025).
Results: Statistical analysis results indicated that there was a significant difference between drop and service tests (P≤0.025).
Conclusion: Finally, specific-skilled programs were suggested for badminton coaches in increasing coincidence anticipation timing accuracy in athletes.
