Study on the Attention and Spatial Working Memory Characteristics of High-Level Female College Soccer Players
To investigate the attention and spatial working memory characteristics of high-level female college soccer players.A total of 36 subjects,divided into a soccer group and a control group,were tested using the Attention Test Scale and spatial working memory tasks.Results:(1)The soccer group showed significantly higher scores in attention allocation,attention span,and total attention score compared to the control group.(2)In the 1-back task,the reaction time of the soccer group was significantly lower than that of the control group.Furthermore,when the number of balls was 1,the reaction time of the soccer group was significantly smaller than that of the control group.Conclusion:High-level female college soccer players demonstrate higher levels of concentra-tion and flexibility in attention performance,which may be related to their ability to rapidly adjust to competitive environments and sensitivity to key information.Additionally,the soccer group also exhibits significant advantages in spatial working memory,likely due to the positive influence of long-term training on spatial information processing.These findings provide important clues for further exploring the cognitive characteristics of athletes and offer insights into soccer training and selection strategies.
