The purpose of this study was to investigate subjective factors related to body control in 119 college baseball players. Thirty-three subjects (28%) answered that “the actual play and my image do not match”. The factor with the highest odds ratio was 35.56 for “decreased somatic sense.” This was followed by 8.05 for “decreased instantaneous power” and 3.74 for “decreased muscle strength”. This suggests that even university students have decreased physical sensation, which may affect their sports movements.
