ECIN Replication Package for "Favoritism under multiple sources of social pressure"

This deposit contains the replication package for "Favoritism under Multiple Sources of Social Pressure".<br><br>Abstract:<br>When social pressure leads to favoritism, policies might aim to reduce the bias
by affecting its source. This paper shows that multiple sources may be present and
telling them apart is important. We build a novel and granular dataset on European
football games and revisit the view that supporting crowds make referees help the
host team. We find this bias to remain unchanged even in stadiums closed due
to Covid-19. Instead, influential host organizations emerge as the source of social
pressure. This has an adverse effect on maintaining the ranking of influential teams
and hindering the progress of smaller teams.<br>
