Numerous studies have demonstrated improved performance results for sport skills through attentional focus instructions. However, few studies have examined the effects of cueing on expert kinematic performance, and this is the first to assess cueing’s kinematic effects on expert soccer players performing .common techniques This study assessed the lower extremity kinematics of an inside of the foot soccer trap via motion capture cameras under different attentional focus cues to analyze how the cues affect the movement pattern among expert performers. 10 NCAA Division 1 soccer players trapped a launched ball on a scoring mat after receiving coaching cues inducing an internal, external, holistic, or control focus of attention. Statistical analysis revealed movement differences between the internal and external cue conditions for the ankle and knee joints during the movement. The difference at the knee was a steeper flexion followed by a correction and, at the ankle, a steeper flexion, both during the internal cue condition. Attentional focus cues inducing a conscious control of the movement may disrupt the movement patterns of highly skilled expert performers. Coaches should be acutely aware of the language they use in instruction, even among expert performers.

大量研究表明，通过注意焦点指示可以改善运动技能的表现结果。但是，很少有研究检查提示对专家运动学性能的影响，这是第一个评估提示对执行专业技术的足球运动员的运动学影响的方法。这项研究通过运动评估了脚部足球陷阱内部的下肢运动学捕获不同注意力焦点线索下的摄像机，以分析线索如何影响专家表演者之间的运动模式。10名NCAA 1级足球运动员在收到引起内部，外部，整体或控制关注焦点的教练指示后，将发射的球困在计分垫上。统计分析显示，运动期间踝关节和膝关节的内部和外部提示条件之间的运动差异。在内部提示状态下，膝关节的差异是屈曲较陡，随后是矫正，而脚踝则是屈曲较陡。引起运动有意识控制的注意力集中线索可能会破坏高技能专家演奏者的运动模式。教练应该敏锐地意识到他们在教学中使用的语言，即使是在专业表演者中也是如此。
