L'avantage de jouer à domicile, ou l'avantage du terrain, est peut-être le thème le plus intéressant se rapportant à la notion de public interactif. Jouer à domicile dans les sports tels que le basket-ball, le base-ball, le football américain, le hockey sur glace et le football est un avantage incontestable [...]

CONT

Lorsque deux équipes se valent, l'avantage du terrain a une grande influence sur l'issue de la rencontre.

Record 2 2007-01-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Sports (General)
  • Physical Education, Coaching and Sport Psychology
CONT

A topic closely associated with the study of the home court advantage is the effect that spectators and a friendly crowd have upon team performance. Although the crowd influence is a large part of the home court advantage, it doesn’t account for everything.

CONT

The effect sizes and percentiles for both Siena and Hartford suggest the possibility of a spectator effect, [i.e.] the performance of both teams was better with no spectators present.

CONT

L'influence du public sur l'arbitre semble donc être un facteur explicatif de l'avantage de jouer à domicile.
