Decision-making performance was assessed through video by 3 elite umpire coaches who reviewed free-kick accuracy during each match. These data were further analyzed according to the position (mid-zone or end-zone) of the umpire when each decision was made. The average distance covered was 10,563 ± 608 m, of which 1,952 ± 494 m was HSR. Significant reductions in distance covered were observed during the third (p = 0.006) and fourth (p = 0.001) quarters, compared with the first. An average of 44 ± 8 free kicks awarded per match with a decision accuracy of 84 ± 6%; however, there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) in these measures across a match. Significantly (p ≤ 0.05) higher physical (HSR; relative distance) and decision-making requirements were observed within the mid-zone. The current data quantify the physical and decision-making demands of AF umpiring and demonstrated that despite a high physical workload, free-kick accuracy is maintained across a match. This suggests that decision making may not be directly compromised by the intermittent running demands of AF umpires. Positional rotations between the mid-zone and end-zone position allow for the demands to be shared among all field umpires during a match.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 15:32:45 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18259 Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:55:27 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15332 Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:41:45 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30906 Amphibolurus muricatus, a species that makes extensive use of rapid motor patterns in social communication. First, focal lizards were tested in discrimination trials using random-dot kinematograms displaying combinations of speed, coherence, and direction. Second, we measured subject lizards’ ability to predict the appearance of a secondary reinforcer (1 of 3 different computer-generated animations of invertebrates: cricket, spider, and mite) based on the direction of movement of a field of drifting dots by following a set of behavioural responses (e.g., orienting response, latency to respond) to our virtual stimuli. We found an effect of both speed and coherence, as well as an interaction between these 2 factors on the perception of moving stimuli. Overall, our results showed that Jacky dragons have acute sensitivity to high speeds. We then employed an optic flow analysis to match the performance to ecologically relevant motion. Our results suggest that the Jacky dragon visual system may have been shaped to detect fast motion. This pre-existing sensitivity may have constrained the evolution of conspecific displays. In contrast, Jacky dragons may have difficulty in detecting the movement of ambush predators, such as snakes and of some invertebrate prey. Our study also demonstrates the potential of the computer-animated stimuli technique for conducting nonintrusive tests to explore motion range and sensitivity in a visually mediated species.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 13:39:09 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39875 M = 31). Stimuli varied in head pitch angle, eye gaze, and motion/static appearance. Participants rated the stimuli for levels of masculinity, femininity, attractiveness, and dominance. Both studies confirmed that pitching the face upward at incrementally increasing angles resulted in a linear increase in ratings of masculinity, physical dominance, and social dominance and a linear decrease in ratings of femininity, physical attractiveness, and behavioral allure. Study 2 showed that these effects can be dependent on either the perceived structural change of the face or the actual movement of the face, and these are different for each rating category. The perceived dimorphism, attractiveness, and dominance of a face will change dependent on the angle of pitch it is presented but also whether it is moving or not, where it is moving in space, and what direction it is moving.]]> Tue 28 Jun 2022 14:47:02 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52576 Tue 17 Oct 2023 15:48:32 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20062 Tue 14 Aug 2018 12:38:26 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18299 Tue 05 May 2020 10:01:17 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44414 Thu 13 Oct 2022 08:55:25 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15656 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:19:47 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12490 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:17:13 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10854 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:43 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10859 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:05 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9858 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:01 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11422 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:11:32 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10902 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:09:03 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10903 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:07:41 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20921 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:06:10 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17124 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:02:28 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17957 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:56:28 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17899 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:56:18 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21246 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:53:03 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27308 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:38:31 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26478 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:27:15 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26477 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:27:15 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25549 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:26:05 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25516 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:26:02 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28337 0.05) in psychomotor performance at different time points were observed. Response time was significantly improved when running above 65% of maximal sprinting speed (P < 0.01). This data questions the application of the inverted-U hypothesis for intermittent exercise and suggests that the short high-intensity efforts may not result in the same physiological events that limit psychomotor performance during sustained high-intensity exercise. More so, the high-intensity efforts during the match protocol appeared to promote psychomotor performance during the intermittent exercise.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:25:14 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23859 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:12:10 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40226 Mon 01 Aug 2022 09:31:28 AEST ]]>
