title: Specificity of shooting training with the optoelectronic target.
abstract: Our aim was to estimate quantitatively the specificity of training with the SCATT optoelectronic training simulator in comparison with a real shot with pellets, exemplified by the air-pistol shooting. The research was conducted using the methods of optoelectronic registration of movements, the Shapiro-Wilk method, one-way ANOVA, statistical tests based on Student's t-test and Snedecor's F-distribution, and office computer technologies. The method of point coordinate digitization on trace graphs and the trajectory of SCATT interface is developed. The differences in the position of virtual holes at three types of training shots arise in a vertical coordinate (p < 0.02) but no significant differences in a horizontal coordinate (p > 0.3) are found. SCATT simulator menu option of shot result forecast in a given shot moment seems to be incorrect, because it does not take into account fundamental changes in weapon movement during triggering.
