An analysis of NFL Penalties with and without crowds","abstract":"Covid-19 restrictions offered a unique opportunity to examine the extent to which crowd sizes and crowd noises affects outcomes in sports fixtures.

The results suggest that demand increases for most competitions with the consumer's level of interest, the accessibility to the matches, and the consumer being fan of a club playing in that competition. No support to the uncertainty-of-outcome hypothesis is found, as perceived competitive balance does not increase demand for most competitions. Conversely, the perception of quality of game played tends to be a more important driver of demand, influencing more competitions and having a larger impact.","duration":null,"file_audio":null,"file_video":"1677523014987noT1z.mp4","compressed":1,"slug":"european-men-s-club-football-in-the-eyes-of-consumers-the-determinants-of-television-broadcast-demand-4zXyLE1Hk","date_published_readable":"February 27, 2023","author":"Anthony Macedo","author_slug":"anthony-macedo-4zXyLE1Jq","keywords":[{"name":"sports","slug":"sports-4zXyLE1Hf"},{"name":"european super league","slug":"european-super-league-4zXyLE1IQ"},{"name":"stated preferences","slug":"stated-preferences-4zXyLE1IR"}],"disciplines":[]},{"ID":43,"status":40,"date_created":"2023-02-08 20:10:23","article_ID":43,"audience_type":2,"stats_view":423,"stats_like":3,"stats_save":0,"stats_play":0,"title":"Market Efficiency and Censoring Bias in College Football Gambling","abstract":"The team totals and point spread betting lines jointly predict team scores in college football games. The gambling market\u2019s score predictions are shown to be biased due to censoring at zero points. This presents arbitrage opportunities for gamblers who place wagers on the team totals line in cases for which expected bias is high. A na\u00efve betting strategy that exploits this bias using only information contained within the two betting lines themselves yields a win percentage of over 55 percent over the past two decades. This significantly exceeds the typical transaction costs associated with wagers, indicating the market is semi-strong inefficient.","duration":null,"file_audio":null,"file_video":"1675886819686M1XUh.mp4","compressed":1,"slug":"market-efficiency-and-censoring-bias-in-college-football-gambling-4zXyLE1Hc","date_published_readable":"February 08, 2023","author":"Robert Arscott","author_slug":"robert-arscott-4zXyLE1J6","keywords":[{"name":"censoring models","slug":"censoring-models-4zXyLE1Iv"},{"name":"market efficiency","slug":"market-efficiency-4zXyLE1Iw"},{"name":"gambling markets","slug":"gambling-markets-4zXyLE1Ix"}],"disciplines":[]},{"ID":34,"status":40,"date_created":"2023-02-02 16:36:23","article_ID":34,"audience_type":0,"stats_view":547,"stats_like":2,"stats_save":0,"stats_play":0,"title":"Belief in meritocracy reexamined: Scrutinizing the role of subjective social mobility","abstract":"Despite decreasing intergenerational mobility, strengthening the ties between family background and children\u2019s economic outcomes, Western citizens continue to believe in meritocracy. We study how meritocratic beliefs about success relate to individuals\u2019 social mobility experiences: is subjective upward mobility associated with meritocratic attributions of success, and downward mobility with structuralist views? Whereas previous studies addressed the relevance of individuals\u2019 current position or objective mobility, we leverage Diagonal Reference Models to disentangle the role of subjective mobility, origin and destination. Surveying a representative Dutch sample (n = 1,507), we find, echoing the Thomas\u2019 theorem, that if people experience social mobility as real, it is real in its consequences: subjective upward mobility is associated with stronger meritocratic beliefs and downward mobility is associated with stronger structuralist beliefs\u2014but has no bearing on people\u2019s meritocracy beliefs. This helps understand the muted political response to growing inequality: a small share of upwardly mobile individuals may suffice to uphold public faith in meritocracy.","duration":null,"file_audio":null,"file_video":"1675355769270MK09d.mp4","compressed":1,"img_profile":"f\/users\/63dbe5328b35f_th.jpg","slug":"belief-in-meritocracy-reexamined-scrutinizing-the-role-of-subjective-social-mobility-4zXyLE1H3","date_published_readable":"February 02, 2023","author":"Jonathan Mijs","author_slug":"jonathan-mijs-4zXyLE1IR","keywords":[{"name":"social mobility","slug":"social-mobility-4zXyLE1I4"},{"name":"meritocracy","slug":"meritocracy-4zXyLE1I5"},{"name":"inequality","slug":"inequality-4zXyLE1I6"},{"name":"drm","slug":"drm-4zXyLE1I7"},{"name":"netherlands","slug":"netherlands-4zXyLE1I8"}],"disciplines":[]}],"count":4},"head\/og\/url":"disciplines\/economics-4zXyLE1GJ","head\/title":"Podcasts for the discipline economics","head\/description":"Podcasts for the discipline economics","URL_MEDIA":"https:\/\/media.podscholars.com\/"}
