Title Impartiality in Diving. Evidence from the European Chapionships.
Summary Judging at sport contests give an excellent opportunity to empirically test for impartiality of the judges. Quite naturally, one would expect a judge to give higher score to his fellow countryman on average.
This hypothesis motivates to empirically test for the presence of impartiality. The methodology used in this paper involves basic econometric models, such as ordinary least squares and ordered probit estimation.
The empirical findings support the initial expectation of imperfect impartiality.
