Therefore, purpose present study was to analyze performance...
A deeper understanding of the factors behind performance and their interactions is essential to promote better training practices.Notwithstanding, focus often relies on outcomes players' actions (e.g., effi cacy rates), whereas nature variations particular classes remain largely unexplored.Our purpose was conduct a systemic analysis categorical game variables using Social Network Analysis.Game were counted as nodes edges.Eigenvector centrality values calculated for each node.Eight matches...
