ABSTRACT:
A measles epidemic resulted in a quarantine that caused 11 North Atlantic Conference basketball games for two teams to be played in the absence of spectators. This allowed a rare opportunity to investigate possible crowd effects on game performance in the natural setting. Observed differences, median and effect size analyses showed improved performance for total points scored, field goal percentage and free throw percentage with no crowd present. No support for performance differences were found through t-test analyses. The t-test results were discussed in the context of statistical power. The findings provide insight and important baseline information on data seldom available for study.
