If you look at his products he's pitching and go to:

Yes -- almost as effective as a bullet in the head.
But since the side effects of punishment include conditioned
emotional effects and avoidance behaviors, I'm not sure what the

Yes.
But what I was interested in is the stopping of behavior.
If we ignore any side effects including physical maiming if appropriate for the
punishment and we don't care about the individual, which is more effective.
So. more from a theoretical perspective. What would eliminate a behavior most
Is this an "effect"--or rather an association? Also, stat. significance simply

Annette,Interesting! Gladwell was talking about Canadian hockey teams
though. I suspect that Malcolm is right, and there is an effect across the
board, but perhaps not as robust as he suggests except in specific teams.

I must have nothing else to do today because I decided to print out all the NHL

Here is what I found:

A chi-square analysis suggests this is significant at less than .01 and hence
could not have occurred by chance.
Of course,
That is an amazing resource Michael and I will certainly use it in my

Hi
If you google "birthdate sports success" quite a few studies come up, including
more recent one's in hockey and a number for other sports. I did not look at
them all, but there were interesting variations ... for example, I seem to
remember something for soccer in UK where age cut-offs occu
Similar results have been found for US soccer players in the Olympic
Development Program. The effect might only hold for male athletes though. I
remember seeing a similar result for professional players in Europe. I am
working from home today and don't have access to the references. I think that
What a perfect follow-up study, Jim. Interesting thought that older
players (January - June birthdates) continue to play minor
hockey till a later age than do the younger players (July - December
birthdates) who tend to drop out of the sport.
Hmmm...do you think this is a good subject pool though
I had my notes for the various schools and how each might explain the
difficulty of losing weight in a Word doc. Creating the map itself
from my notes was very easy. You create it completely online. I
think there's a free trial you can get set up for. It's definitely
worth trying out.
Very cool map! How easy was it to create? Did you create it online, or did
you create it offline and upload it? Lot of potential if it is easy to use.
