Sensomotor response of representatives of game sports at different motor response to stimuli

Smoothing or emphasizing on laterality of movements in athletes depends on the specifics of the sport and determining perceptual-motor abilities. Individual motor features. Their consideration in the process of sports training is impossible without knowledge of the presence and degree of manifestation of motor asymmetry, which will affect the sports result. Objective: to establish the peculiarities of sensorimotor response of athletes of game sports in comparison with representatives of cyclic sports and martial arts at different motor response to stimuli. Material and methods: student-athletes of game, cyclic sports and martial arts at the age of 18-23 years were studied. The study was conducted according to the diagnostic training method ReactionX: sensorimotor response to audiosensory stimuli of Standard and Sequence programs in Close and Far distance conditions. Results: data of sensorimotor reaction of representatives of game, cyclic sports and martial arts in different conditions of stimuli presentation and motor response were obtained. Separate comparisons of indicators of sensorimotor component of readiness by reaction speed and perceptual-cognitive component by the number of processed signals of representatives of game sports with other groups of athletes were made. The statistical reliability of comparison of the studied parameters is shown and the value of the difference of indicators is presented. Conclusions: the peculiarities of the sensorimotor response of representatives of game sports consisted in a higher speed of response and a greater number of perceived and processed signals at a remote response with the right (dominant) hand in the program of random stimulus presentation. In contrast, the peculiarity of sensorimotor reaction of representatives of cyclic sports and martial arts was the highest number of perceived and processed signals at a remote response with the right hand in the program with a sequential order of presentation of signals. Perceptual-motor symmetry was found in athletes, regardless of specialization, when responding to the sequential order of appearance of signals as opposed to their arbitrary presentation.
