Employers may favor applicants who played college sports if athletics participation contributes to leadership, conscientiousness, discipline, and other traits that are desirable for labor-market productivity. We conduct a resume audit to estimate the causal effect of listing collegiate athletics on employer callbacks and test for subgroup effects by ethnicity, gender, and sport type. We applied to more than 450 jobs on a large, well-known job board. For each job listing, we submitted two fictitious resumes, one of which was randomly assigned to include collegiate varsity athletics. Overall, listing a college sport does not produce a statistically significant change in the likelihood of receiving a callback or interview request. We find no statistically significant differences within ethnicities or genders.

Workers entering the labor market often face a trade off between job matches that maximizes their short run and long run compensation. This trade off is influenced by peers who may enhance or diminish the worker’s productivity, and thus affect their future salary. We study this question for rookies in the National Basketball Association (NBA). We find that for rookies drafted between 2011 and 2017, playing with teammates that facilitated them getting 1 additional point per 100 possessions was predicted to increase the value of their second contract by between 9.9% and 23.6%. This implies that being drafted by the team that provides the ‘best fit’ is an important determinant of a rookie’s future earnings.

In recent years, many schools have lifted their alcohol sales bans at college football games, possibly as a tool to increase attendance and revenues. However, spillovers to crime deserve consideration, given the research that links alcohol consumption and availability to crime. Alcohol sales may spill over to crime through their impacts on attendance, preferences for alcohol consumption among fans, and endogenous changes to policing and enforcement, although the net effect on crime is theoretically ambiguous. Using data from the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) over the 2005 to 2016 period for law enforcement agencies that serve 33 Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) schools, and utilizing difference-in-differences (DD) and triple-differences empirical strategies (leveraging variation in pre-vs. post-sales periods, home vs. away game days, and sales-adopting vs. non-adopting schools), I find that alcohol sales are associated with reductions in arrests for liquor law violations (83.5 percent) and disorderly conduct (81.0 percent) on home game days.

A neglected area in the compensating-differential literature is how wages compensate workers for the risk of reinjury, specifically the risk of a subsequent mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI). Using a new, unbalanced panel of 1,211 professional boxers, this paper finds that boxers' purses price for the risk of knockout reinjury risk while those that have never lost by knockout earn economically and statistically insignificant knockout-risk premiums. These results are consistent across three measures of previous knockout loss and three robustness tests, implying that current values of a statistical injury (VSI) underestimate previously injured workers' willingness to pay for safety.

We compare the preferences of athletes who practice individual sports to those of non-athletes, by combining incentivized tasks and survey questions. Athletes were more likely to opt for the tournament payment scheme in the competitive tasks. Female athletes and male non-athletes were equally likely to select the tournament payment. We also find that female athletes were equally as risk-tolerant as non-athlete men and equally as risk-tolerant as men overall (whether athletes or non-athletes), for incentivized tasks and stated preferences. It is concluded that participation in competitive sports favors closure of the gender gaps in competitiveness and risk tolerance.

This paper considers recent and historical changes in the three-point line distance at the NCAA and NBA levels as an example of policy change with highly-measurable outcome(s). The paper presents several empirical tests describing a point-maximizing basketball team's optimal allocation of two-point and three-point shots. It does so primarily in the context that the NCAA Men's Basketball three-point line was extended from 20′9″ to 21′9″ in advance of the 2019–20 season, and similar analysis for the NBA in the 1990s. We find that a three-point line extension significantly lowers three- and two-point shot proficiency, while decreasing (increasing) three-point (two-point) shot volume.

Travel across time zones may affect player scoring through circadian rhythm. We test how travel affects scoring for the US National Basketball Association from 2014–2018, a period featuring a new game scheduler. We also test whether a collective bargaining agreement that protected player rest changed how travel affects scoring. We find eastward travel increases scoring and point spread via three-pointers and field goals, with implications for point spread betting in sports gambling markets. The 2017 collective bargaining agreement mitigates the eastward travel benefit on scoring and increases scoring overall, suggesting improved fairness and potential benefits for players and fans.

This paper examines the incentive effects of increased prize differentials and productivity spillovers from substitute coworkers within the context of esports. A direct behavioral measure called “actions per minute (APM)” is utilized to gauge Dota 2 players’ on-field exertion of effort dedicated to winning the game. The results based on empirical analysis support the incentive effects of the convex prize structure of esports tournaments on eliciting effort. Further investigation indicates that the incentive effects of high-stakes esports tournaments are more a result of the size of total prize than the relative prize distribution. It is also found that players who serve subordinate roles are more likely to engage in shirking behavior in the presence of teammates with similar roles.

Prior evidence reveals a causal relationship between sporting events and crime. If sporting events increase crime, they also increase public spending on policing. We analyze the crime-police spending relationship using data from the Annual Survey of Public Employment & Payroll over the periods 1979–1995 and 1997–2010 for a sample of 52 US municipalities with and without teams. Reduced form regression models reveal that police employment increases with the arrival and departure of an NFL team as well as with the number of postseason games played. We argue that both these outcomes generate plausibly exogenous variation in sports-related demand for policing.

In April of 2000, the inaugural issue of the Journal of Sports Economics was published, with an official date of February, 2000. This anniversary issue ostensibly marks 20 years of the Journal, but by the time of publication 22 years will have elapsed since that first issue. The tardiness of this anniversary issue is because, to borrow from Leo Kahane’s description of publication of that first issue, in the first essay, “the editorial staff was a bit behind piecing the issue together.” In this case, however, the editorial staff is me. Indeed, the idea of this issue did not occur to me until after I had received through the normal submission process two of the articles in this issue, those by Carlos Gomez-Gonzalez, Julio del Corral and Placido Rodriguez, and Dominik Schreyer and Payam Ansari. Consequently, I thank those authors both for their contributions to this issue and for the nudge I needed to begin organizing this anniversary issue. Once Carlos, Julio, Placido, Dominik and Payam all agreed to letting me delay evaluation and publication of their papers while I sought additional contributions to the special issue, I began in earnest to organize the issue. The first step was to solicit a contribution from Leo who founded and then edited the Journal for 16 years. Leo quickly agreed and his comments follow as the first essay in the issue. Leo also suggested some individuals to invite for submissions. I wanted a mix of Americans and Europeans to contribute to the issue, so I reached out to Wladimir Andreff and Rob Simmons to represent Europe, and Roger Noll and Rod Fort for the United States. Finally, Brad Humphreys proposed a project he had with his student Clay Collins which he thought would fit nicely into the anniversary issue, and I agreed. Kahane’s reflections on the founding of the Journal and its development over his 16 years as the editor highlight several facts about the success of the Journal as of the end of his editorship. Among these are the impact factor, the ranking, number of subscribers, submissions, and downloads. The tremendous growth he documents has
2000年4月，《体育经济学杂志》创刊，正式日期为2000年2月。从表面上看，这期周年刊标志着《华尔街日报》成立20周年，但到出版时，距离第一期已经过去了22年。这期周年纪念特刊迟迟不出，借用利奥·卡哈内在第一篇文章中对第一期杂志的描述，是因为“编辑人员在拼凑这期杂志方面有点落后。”然而，在这种情况下，编辑人员是我。事实上，直到我通过正常的投稿程序收到本期的两篇文章之后，我才产生了这个想法，这两篇文章分别是Carlos Gomez-Gonzalez、Julio del Corral和Placido Rodriguez，以及Dominik Schreyer和Payam Ansari。因此，我感谢这些作者对本期杂志的贡献，也感谢他们推动我开始组织这期周年纪念杂志。当卡洛斯、胡里奥、普西多、多米尼克和帕亚姆都同意让我推迟对他们论文的评估和发表，而我则为这期特刊寻找更多的投稿时，我开始认真地组织这期特刊。第一步是向Leo征求稿件，Leo创立并编辑了《华尔街日报》16年。里奥很快同意了，他的评论作为这期的第一篇文章紧随其后。李奥还建议邀请一些人提交意见。我希望美国人和欧洲人都能为这个问题做出贡献，所以我联系了代表欧洲的弗拉基米尔·安德烈夫和罗布·西蒙斯，以及代表美国的罗杰·诺尔和罗德·福特。最后，布拉德·汉弗莱斯(Brad Humphreys)提出了他和学生克莱·柯林斯(Clay Collins)的一个项目，他认为这个项目很适合刊登在周年纪念特刊上，我同意了。Kahane对《华尔街日报》的创立及其在他担任主编的16年里的发展进行了反思，他强调了《华尔街日报》在他担任主编结束时取得成功的几个事实。其中包括影响因素、排名、订阅者数量、提交和下载。他所记录的巨大增长
