• The Enactive Roots of STEM: Rethinking Educational Design in Mathematics (2015, background): “For example, when swimmers practice the arm stroke in crawl style, they perform better by focusing on Bpushing the water back^ than on Bpulling your hands back^ (Stoate and Wulf 2011).”
• Attentional focus and motor learning: a review of 15 years (2013, background): “Similarly, expert swimmers with several years of competitive experience swam faster with external relative to internal focus instructions (Stoate & Wulf, 2011).”
• Attentional focus in endurance activity: new paradigms and future directions (2014, background): “This may be particularly relevant considering that attentional focus strategies directed at the movement effect (external association) have been shown to improve speed in endurance type activities (e.g. Freudenheim, Wulf, Madureira, Pasetto, & Corrêa, 2010; Stoate & Wulf, 2011).”
