Table 2.
Mean (SD) shooting accuracy, duration of movement phases, and gaze behavior variables for the participants with worse and better performance (in the contested compared to the uncontested condition), in the uncontested and contested conditions. For definitions of the phases and durations, we refer to the text (see section “Data Analyses”).
