Relationship of biological and pedagogical aspects in children`s early sports training
Abramova, T. F., Nikitina, T. M., Polfuntikova, A. V., Yakutovich, N. M.Published in Theory and Practice of Physical Culture (2024)“…The greatest difference between athletes and untrained children is inherent in cognitive development, which reflects the leading role of consciousness in the development of skills of various properties and characteristics of learning. Motor and psychomotor abilities, which differ in the manifestation of the strength of the nervous system and the quality of coordination, are consistent with the priority of the importance of the development of movement control structures in accordance with the characteristics of motor activity and learning. …”

The effects of divided attention and decision-making on single-leg landing stability in elite youth football players
Friebe, D., Giesche, F., Both, H., Haser, C., Pfab, F., Sieland, J., Wilke, J., Banzer, W.Published in 28th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science, 4-7 July 2023, Paris, France (2023)“…INTRODUCTION: In football, athletes are required to quickly adapt their motor actions to the dynamics on the field. Previous studies have shown that athletic high-speed tasks (e.g., cutting or landing) involving either divided attention or time-constrained decision-making result in aberrant move-ment biomechanics associated with an increased risk for lower limb injuries. …”
