We investigated the effects of anticipation and dual tasking on trunk and lower extremity kinematics during a side step cutting maneuver in 32 healthy active males. Participants were directed with a green light to cut to the right or left either before they started running, anticipated cut, or right before they made the cut, unanticipated cut. While making the cut the participant also had to focus on possibly catching a ball meaning the ball was either faked or thrown to the participant. Our results did not indicate there was a significant effect of anticipation on a task. However, when the ball was either faked or thrown regardless of anticipation there was a decrease in lateral trunk flexion towards the stance leg at peak knee flexion and toe off. There was also an increase in trunk rotation at initial contact, peak knee flexion, and toe off when the ball was thrown. Overall, anticipation or dual tasking did not affect lower extremity kinematics. 2017-10-19 English text University of Toledo / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1493290972920494 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1493290972920494 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
