Enhanced predictive saccade strategies and spatial prediction accuracy in first-person shooter-specialized players.
Article in Frontiers in systems neuroscience, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Predictive gaze behavior is essential in fast-paced esport environments; however, the visuomotor and neural mechanisms supporting predictive saccades in competitive first-person shooter (FPS) players remain insufficiently understood. This study investigated whether FPS-specialized players exhibit enhanced predictive saccade strategies compared to individuals without competitive FPS experience. Methods: Seventeen active gamers were assigned to either an FPS-specialized group ( Results: The FPS-specialized group exhibited earlier emergence of predictive gaze shifts toward the anticipated arrival position and demonstrated substantially smaller spatial prediction errors, including reduced PE values. These behavioral advantages were accompanied by increased low-beta activity in right Brodmann area (BA) 7, left BA40, and left BA6-regions, associated with spatial prediction, visuomotor integration, and predictive motor planning. Conclusion: These findings suggest that competitive FPS experience cultivates a coordinated visuomotor prediction system that supports earlier initiation and improved accuracy of predictive saccade behavior.
