This literature suggests that the abilities underlying object tracking are not those advertised by the Neurotracker manufacturers. We then consider the several hundred MOT publications in cognitive and vision science from the last 30 years that have investigated cognitive functions and object tracking processes. We first summarize the sport science debate regarding the value of general cognitive skill training, based on tools such as Neurotracker, versus sport-specific skill training. In this review, we examine Neurotracker from both a sport science and a basic science perspective. The tool, which is also used in rehabilitation and aging research to examine cognitive abilities, uses a 3D multiple object-tracking (MOT) task. N2 - In this systematic review, we evaluate the scientific evidence behind “Neurotracker,” one of the most popular perceptual-cognitive training tools in sports. Simons for the helpful and constructive comments provided in his review. T1 - A critical systematic review of the Neurotracker perceptual-cognitive training tool We provide recommendations for future Neurotracker research to improve the evidence base and for making better use of sport and basic science findings.", Only three studies investigated far transfer to ecologically valid tasks, two of which did not find any effect. For other skills as well, the effects are mixed. The literature has major limitations, for example a total absence of preregistered studies, which makes the evidence for improvements for working memory and sustained attention very weak. With a systematic literature search, we scrutinize the evidence for whether general cognitive skills can be tested and trained with Neurotracker and whether these trained skills transfer to other domains. We provide recommendations for future Neurotracker research to improve the evidence base and for making better use of sport and basic science findings.Ībstract = "In this systematic review, we evaluate the scientific evidence behind “Neurotracker,” one of the most popular perceptual-cognitive training tools in sports.
