  text: "<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>\r\n                  <jats:p>Deceptive
    actions such as head fakes are a hallmark of interactive sports, yet it is not
    well understood how decisions and whole-body responses to head fakes unfold over
    time. In the present study, participants viewed video sequences of a basketball
    player passing to the left or right, either with or without a head fake. In the
    buzzer task, participants moved laterally to press a response button as if to
    intercept the pass. In the vocal task, they verbally indicated pass direction.
    Reaction times (RTs), movement times (MTs), and medio-lateral center-of-pressure
    (CoP) displacements were recorded to investigate whether motor output is rapid
    and stimulus-driven or rather requires continuous integration of fake and pass
    cues. Further, we investigated whether the mere observation of a basketball player
    leads to overt micromovements even if no response movement is intended. The data
    analysis shows that head fakes increased RTs in both the buzzer and vocal tasks.
    In the buzzer task, head fakes induced an initial, small erroneous CoP shift,
    which was then rapidly corrected. When CoP trajectories were aligned by head orientation,
    fake and non-fake trajectories diverged shortly after movement onset. In the present
    dynamic sport-related context, this pattern is more compatible with the early
    integration of head and pass information than with a strictly sequential prime-target
    account, although the paradigm differs from classic Rapid Chase Theory designs
    with discrete primes and target events. In the vocal task, participants were not
    instructed to move, yet CoP traces showed tiny but systematically lateralized
    micromovements with a temporal structure resembling that in the buzzer task, albeit
    without an initial erroneous shift for head fakes. These postural fluctuations
    are consistent with action-observation-related motor activation, although they
    do not uniquely identify motor resonance and may also reflect attentional or generalized
    embodied response tendencies. A clear deceptive response conflict at the postural
    level emerged only when a lateralized action was prepared.</jats:p>"
