Abstract

The best performance of volleyball players in attention's orientation in visual field depends on using efficient strategies of orientation as against the persons who don't practice sports. This is obviously if the cerebral activities is analysed in connection with voluntary's orientation of attention on one or both visual fields. For volleyball players, these cerebral activities are fundamentally increased in case of focused attention on both visual fields. Maybe due to perception conditions that are created by their sports activities volleyball players use predominantly wide-range attention in a highly automated way. That is possible because they use an additional attentional process when it comes to focusing the spotlight on the area enclosed from the view field. Conversely, a person who doesn't practice sports usually generally adopts attention with a center more limited, using more attentional resources when it comes to paying attention simultaneously to both visual fields view.
