چکیده

We welcome and appreciate the comment by Braun and Schmidt on our recent correspondence about the gambler's fallacy in goalkeeper behaviour during penalty shoot-outs. Braun and Schmidt assert that the binomial is more appropriate for analysing the data than our resampling approach. Their analyses appear to assume that dive direction is binomially distributed with a probability of 0.5. In fact, there are several biases in goalkeeper behaviour. First, we showed that kickers have a slight bias to kick to the goalkeeper's right, and that goalkeepers also have a slight bias to dive rightwards. This bias did not cross the conventional significance threshold in our data, but it still cannot be ignored when modelling sequences of actions. Repeated independent sampling from any distribution produces a sequential pattern that depends on the bias. The binomial distribution used to test hypotheses about sequential dependence should, therefore, have the same biases as the actual sample.

On Inequity Aversion A Reply to Binmore and Shaked

In this paper we reply to Binmore and Shaked’s criticism of the Fehr-Schmidt model of inequity aversion. We put the theory and their arguments into perspective and show that their criticism is not substantiated. Finally, we briefly comment on the main challenges for future research on social preferences.

The Rhetoric of Inequity Aversion – A Reply

In a recent “pamphlet” Shaked (2005) harshly criticizes two of our papers, Fehr and Schmidt (1999, 2003). This reply shows that Shaked's charges are not substantiated in any way. It points out several logical flaws in his arguments and shows that he grossly misquotes and misinterprets our papers. * This note is a reply to A. Shaked, “The Rhetoric of Inequity Aversion”, dated March 1, 2005. a) E...
