     Even if fast interceptive actions are continuously influenced by visual information, then surely slower interceptive actions like catching are.

   • 2004, Simon Bennett, Keith Davids, Geert J.P. Savelsbergh, Interceptive Actions in Sport: Information and Movement:

     Interceptive actions are common in everyday life and are instrumental in helping humans to adapt to their complex and uncertain environments. The range of interceptive actions includes both fine and gross motor responses, performed under a variety of conditions in static and dynamic environments, embracing discrete and continuous tasks. They include mundane taks like picking up a cup, placing a foot on a kerb when crossing the road, sitting down gently on a chair, or shaking hands with a friend.

   • 2004, Michael Plum, “Interceptive Beam Diagnostics— Signal Creation and Materials Interactions”, in Thomas Shea, R. Coles Sibley III, editors, Beam Instrumentation Workshop 2004, page 24:

   • 2019, Alain Boyadjian, “Timing in Relay Running”, in Benoit G. Bardy, Reinoud J. Bootsma, Yves Guiard, editors, Studies in Perception and Action III:

     If interceptive tasks consist of being at the right place at the right time, the originality of the athletic relay task is to be found in the fact that receivers have to defer the time-to-encounter.

2. Pertaining to the interruption of a trajectory or course of development to stop it or divert it to a new trajectory or course of development, as opposed to correction after the fact.

   interceptive orthodontics

     Identification and treatment of the disease in its early stages by the use of non-surgical techniques (interceptive caries treatment) therefore seem reasonable.

   • 2009, V. Squire, The Exclusionary Politics of Asylum, page 99:

     The preventative extension of interceptive migration controls is by no means particular to the UK or EU context, and has been developed most notoriously by states such as Australia and Canada ( Hyndman かつ Mountz , 2008 ; Kernerman, 2008; McMaster 2991).

   • 2011, Thomas Rakosi, Thomas M. Graber, Orthodontic and Dentofacial Orthopedic Treatment, page 18:

     Our calculations on the relationship between uterotrophic and interceptive activities support the concept that interruption of early pregnancy is one of the properties of an "estrogenic" compound (Carlborg, 1970).

   • 2004, Reviews on Indian Medicinal Plants, page 90:

     The crude petroleum ether, chloroform and alcoholic extracts of the root administered orally at the single dose of 100 mg/kg bw given at the post implantation period showed 100 per cent interceptive activty in mature female mice.

   • 2013, George deStevens, Ernst Jucker, V. Zingel, Progress in Drug Research, page 166:

     Since the pregnancy interceptive agents or the menses regulators may also influence the development of either trophoblasts or the maternal cells (epithelial かつ stromal) at the embryo attachment site, another in vitro assay method using using trophoblast cells of hamster and mouse isolated from a preplacental organelle, the ectoplacental cone, has been developed.

     On the other hand, had the Americans sought to destroy the Japanese fleet before it sailed – while it was still training for its mission, war-gaming or otherwise making advance preparations – this would have been not an interceptive (hence, lawful) response to an armed attack but an (unlawful) preventive use of force in advance of the attack which had not yet commenced.
