Re: Study sees racial bias in calling fouls
Note that this study was actually not peer reviewed yet.
Great reporting by the NYT, clearly it was "fit to print".
I'd like to see the full text version of the NBA's study; mostly because after school I will be working for the Segal Company, the consultants who administered the study. IF they had found bias in their study, do you think the NBA would no longer use them as benefit consultants? I assume they were involved because they consult on the referee benefit plans. Would they NBA go to a different firm if Segal found the same results as this survey? Personally, I'd doubt it, as it would make the NBA look good by taking steps to fix the problem before it hit the media.
