Years of Relative Age Effects
This paper explores the Relative Age Effect (RAE) after nearly 40 years since its initial examination in sports. Two original studies identified significant participation differences between relatively older and younger players in age-grouped elite hockey and soccer. In the current study, we replicate the original analyses using 2023 data. By comparing data from the original studies and 2023, focusing on Major Junior A hockey in North America and…
Family Planning
Recent studies indicate that month of birth is related to achievement in a number of sports. Birth dates were collected for all players on teams competing in the 1990 World Cup and the 1989 Under-17s and Under-20s World Tournaments in Football. Results indicated that those born early in the 'activity year' (August 1 through July 31 for football) were over- represented, while those born later were under-represented. The effect was particularly str…
Born to Play Ball” The Relative Age Effect and Major League Baseball
The records of 837 major league baseball players were examined in order to determine whether the Little League age eligibility criterion, based on the month of birth, affected participation rate at the professional level. The results indicated that major league players were more likely to have been born in the first months of the year, if that year corresponded to the one used for eligibility for Little League baseball (i.e., beginning in August …
Effects of Verbal Reinforcement on Conformity and Deviant Behavior
Endler (1965) recently demonstrated that in a typical Asch-type group-pressure situation conformity or deviance of S's responses from the contrived group consensus can be manipulated by E with verbal reinforcement. The present experiment was similar to Endler's, variations being minor. As Endler found no difference between males and females, only 35 female Ss from an introductory psychology class were shown materials identical to those used by En…
