Coping with advantageous inequity-Field evidence from professional penalty kicking

Institute of Economics

Research output: Working paper and reports › Working paper

Abstract

This contribution examines the effect of advantageous inequity on performance using data from top-level penalty kicking in soccer. Results indicate that, on average, professionals do not perform worse when they experience unfair advantages. However, we find a negative effect of advantageous inequity in situations where success is less important.
