The authors examined 13 skilled and 12 novice tennis performers’ ability to use visual information of an opponent’s movement pattern to anticipate and respond. In Experiment 1, skilled and novice players anticipated the type of stroke and the direction in which the ball was hit in a highly coupled perception–action environment. Both groups of players correctly anticipated at greater than chance...

The authors compared leg stiffness (KVERT), muscle activation, and joint movement patterns between 11 men and 10 women during hopping. Physically active and healthy men and women performed continuous 2-legged hopping at their preferred rate and at 3.0 Hz. Compared with men, women demonstrated decreased KVERT; however, after the authors normalized for body mass, gender differences in KVERT were ...

The authors examined whether responses of the 2 hands were completely unitized when participants (N = 36) produced bimanual responses to lateralized targets in a Simon-type paradigm. Their primary aim was to investigate whether lateralized stimuli differentially influence the response dynamics of the 2 hands. Simon effects were obtained in reaction time and force; components of the bimanual res...

their excellent safety profile, despite their low transgene expression efficiency in comparison to that of viral vectors. For their administration, cationic lipid-mediated transfer is a promising approach, because of its low toxicity, ease of preparation, and potential for active targeting. One disadvantage associated with the use of DNA–cationic lipid complexes systemically is the induction of...
