Key result
Unique brain slow potential profiles differentiate superior from poor rifle shooting performance.
Why the study?
The study aimed to examine intra- and intersubject variation in preshot brain slow potential profiles and compare superior versus poor rifle-shooting performance.
Population
12 national-caliber sharpshooters
Comparison
Superior performance vs poor performance brain slow potential profiles
Design
Observational study recording preshot brain slow potential shifts

Individual brain potential profiles may guide personalized shooter training; leaves open generalizability and prospective validation.
Observational (n=12)
Skilled sharpshooters exhibit individualized, consistent brain slow potential profiles during successful aiming, with deviations from these patterns preceding poorer shots.
Koettinen et al. (1993) reported an observational. Rifle shooting performance vs. Superior vs poor performance was evaluated on Intra- and intersubject variation in brain slow potential (SP) profiles. Brain slow potential profiles during rifle shooting showed substantial intersubject variability, with each shooter displaying a unique main profile that differentiated superior from poor performance.
