'Hot Hand:' Statistically Significant or Cognitive Illusion.
This paper examines a phenomenon in sport psychology known as the 'hot hand.' This theory holds that athletes have 'streaks' and that a basketball player who has just scored is more likely to also hit his next shot. This contradicts hypothetical statistical probabilities but is supported by folklore. However, statistical analysis undermines the claim that the phenomenon exists. 10 pgs.
