The Eye Dominance Porta Test in Comparison with the Circular Manually Influenced Test

By Hakan Dahlbo

Scientific Study from the year 2021 in the subject Sport - Sport Medicine, Therapy, Nutrition, University of Innsbruck (Central University of Nicaragua), course: Interuniversity College for Health and Development Graz-Innsbruck Austria, language: English, abstract: Unravel the mysteries of sight and skill Delve into a groundbreaking investigation that challenges long-held beliefs about eye dominance and its intricate connection to manual actions. This research embarks on a fascinating journey to explore "Manually Influenced Eye Dominance (MIED)," revealing how our hands can subtly, yet significantly, alter which eye takes the lead. By meticulously comparing the established Porta Test with an innovative Circular Test, this study uncovers inconsistencies in eye dominance across diverse tasks and gaze directions. Discover how the interplay between hand-eye coordination and motor control shapes our perception, potentially revolutionizing fields from sports science to clinical diagnostics. The study, featuring right-handed tennis players, meticulously examines the influence of manual motor tasks on ocular dominance. Challenging the traditional view of a fixed relationship between eye and hand, this investigation uncovers the dynamic nature of visual processing. Explore the depths of the visual system as it adapts to different manual demands, revealing the practical applications of understanding MIED. Utilizing rigorous statistical methods, including the chi-squared test, the research meticulously analyzes data from both the Porta Test (PT) and Circular Test (CT), providing a comprehensive assessment of eye dominance. Uncover the complexities of Experiment 2a (E2a) and 2b (E2b), extended two-handed validity tests, designed to further explore the nuances of eye dominance switching. Embark on a journey that questions assumptions and opens new avenues for optimizing performance and rehabilitation strategies, paving the way for future research into the intricacies of human p
