摘要:
This article analyzes scores given by judges of figure skating at the 1980 Winter Olympics. Judges' scores are found to be highly correlated, with little evidence of scoring along political lines. However, an analysis of variance shows a small but consistent “patriotic” bias; judges tend to give higher scores to contestants from their own country. The influence of such effects on final placings is estimated.
