During biological motion perception, individuals with perceptual experience learn to use more global processing, simultaneously extracting information from multiple body segments. Less-experienced observers may use more local processing of individual body segments. In this study, we examined how skill impacts the neural processing of motion information. Skilled (N = 21) and less-skilled (N = 19) soccer players anticipated temporally occluded videos of penalty kicks under normal, blurred, or spatially occluded (hips-only) viewing conditions, with the latter two conditions emphasizing global and local information respectively. EEG was used to measure parietal alpha and beta oscillations. Skilled players outperformed less-skilled players, albeit both skill groups were less accurate under blurred and hips-only conditions. Skilled performers showed significant decreases in bilateral parietal beta power in the hips-only condition, suggesting a greater reliance on global information. Additionally, the hips-only condition evoked significantly greater beta relative to alpha power (beta – alpha) and lower overall alpha power than the control condition for both skill groups, suggesting this condition elicited a shift towards more local processing. Our novel findings demonstrate that skill and experience impact how motion is processed.
