我们分析了一个有两名选手的连续飞镖比赛,其中一名选手享有技术优势。使用因果
机器学习文献中的方法,我们分析了先行者的内在优势,即潜在的更多但绝不会更少的移动。我们的实证结果表明,技术优势导致的先发者获胜的概率高出8.6个百分点。业绩衡量标准低、经验少的参赛者具有最高的内置优势。关于公平原则,即能力相同的参赛者应具有相同的获胜概率,在两个参赛者具有相同的内在优势和随机首发权的情况下,本次比赛是事前公平的。然而,比赛的设计为同样熟练的参赛者带来了不平等的获胜概率,因为与主客场比赛的参赛者的社会压力相关的内在优势不对称。

英文摘要:
We analyse a sequential contest with two players in darts where one of the contestants enjoys a technical advantage. Using methods from the causal machine learning literature, we analyse the built-in advantage, which is the first-mover having potentially more but never less moves. Our empirical findings suggest that the first-mover has an 8.6 percentage points higher probability to win the match induced by the technical advantage. Contestants with low performance measures and little experience have the highest built-in advantage. With regard to the fairness principle that contestants with equal abilities should have equal winning probabilities, this contest is ex-ante fair in the case of equal built-in advantages for both competitors and a randomized starting right. Nevertheless, the contest design produces unequal probabilities of winning for equally skilled contestants because of asymmetries in the built-in advantage associated with social pressure for contestants competing at home and away.
