Choice response time speeds of the slide and cross-over steps as used in volleyball.

Abstract The purpose of this investigation was to study the relationship between choice response time and three initial step techniques (slide, cross-over, and jab cross-over steps) for responding laterally in a controlled laboratory situation. Subjects for this research (N = 45) were male volunteers who expressed a preference for the right foot. The basic equipment used for measuring response time were two Dekan timing devices, and floor switch mats. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of three orders of step presentation conditions. A 3 (Order)×3 (Step Technique)×2 (Response Direction)×5 (Days of Practice) factorial design with repeated measures over the last three factors was used. The results revealed that significant differences exist among the three step methods, with the slide step being the quickest of the three. The presence of an interaction between days and response direction suggests that superiority for responding right varies across days of practice.
