Description: The use of video recordings in sports, such as the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system and referee decision-making training, has become increasingly relevant in recent years. However, it is important to note that referees perceive a situation differently during a game compared to the recordings used for the VAR or training purposes (which are mostly recordings from cameras outside the court) (Spitz et al., 2021). Depending on the specific characteristics of a situation, the available information may vary from the perspective on the playing field and the perspective of a camera recording from outside the court. This study aims to investigate whether there is a significant difference in the accuracy of participants' decision-making depending on whether they perceive a situation from their own perspective or an outside perspective.
