Prove them wrong: Do professional athletes perform better when facing their former clubs?
Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics. 2022. Vol. 98. Article 101879.
In this paper, we investigated the influence of competition with a former employer on employees’ performance by examining how athletes in team sports play against their former clubs. Using the data on individual players’ performances in multiple seasons of the NBA, NHL, and major European soccer leagues, we constructed several PPML and OLS models to estimate the effect. Professional athletes executed more offensive actions against their former teams. Basketball players scored more points by making more shots but did not improve their accuracy. Ice hockey players, along with footballers in the English Premier League, also shot more. The effect strengthens in the away matches. In addition, the performance improvement is particularly apparent when athletes accumulated insufficient playing time in the former team, or accepted a wage reduction when transferring, or were waived. This study provides evidence that elite basketball, ice hockey, and soccer players perform better against their former clubs.

Post-Soviet Eurasia is one of the world's most geopolitically consequential and rapidly transforming regions. Developments across it increasingly reshape political, economic and social relations far beyond its borders. Understanding these dynamics is therefore both intellectually urgent and analytically demanding, requiring an interdisciplinary approach capable of moving beyond established categories and fragmented national perspectives.

Large language models (LLMs) have been proposed as a substitute for field trials in itemdifficulty estimation, but evidence about where they succeed is usually drawn from a single test form. We compare LLM difficulty predictions across three task types that make different language demands, grammar cloze, semantic cloze and reading comprehension, on two operational Grade ...

Being able to remember the origin of a particular memory is for times even more important than the memory itself. Yet, although memory for the information and memory for the source are intrinsically connected, the particular neural underpinnings for the source‐memory monitoring remains unclear. We run an fMRI meta‐analysis to help to clarify the brain ...
