This research examines the effects of stroboscopic visual training on athletes' reaction times and decision-making abilities.
Conducted systematic review and meta-analysis of nine studies with 323 athletes.
Evaluated risk of bias using the Cochrane assessment tool.
Performed statistical analysis with Stata 18.0 and applied random-effects model for meta-analysis.
Conducted subgroup analysis based on various factors including age, sport experience, and intervention parameters.
Stroboscopic training significantly improved reaction time (SMD = −0.82, p = 0.007).
No significant effect on decision-making ability (SMD = 0.51, p = 0.09).
Optimal stroboscopic training suggests 1-6 weeks duration, high-quality training sessions with specific frequency and duty cycles for better reaction ability.
Cognitive performance improved in athletes under 18 after training (SMD = −0.32, p = 0.05).
