Famous psychology study, showing that professional football and hockey teams wearing black uniforms were penalized more frequently, gets axed in failed replication.
Frank and Gilovich showed that National Football League and National Hockey League teams wearing black uniforms were penalized to a greater extent than teams not wearing black Their study, probably due to its originality, comprehensiveness and surprising findings, was abundantly cited in academic journals (more than 830 citations to date) and was also covered by influential popular media outlets such as Sports Illustrated, Wired and NPR.
They suggested a cultural association of black and malevolence at the root of their finding. They conducted an impressive series of studies demonstrating first that black uniforms were perceived as more malevolent in comparison to other colors
The original study was deficient in several respects, mostly due to the times and the missing nature of the data explored but also because of classification issues. We endeavored to replicate the original study both directly and conceptually as well as employ more recent and expanded data while improving the measurement of the predictor and outcome variables.
In contrast to their early findings, we fail to detect the effect in both leagues while conducting multiple analyses. Also, we failed to find support for reduced aggression when wearing white uniforms. We propose that the original study was deficient due to the impoverished data studied, and a more refined investigation failed to show an increase in aggression when NFL and NHL teams play in black uniforms.
We do not dispute the basic association but argue, in conclusion, that in a complex, cluttered, repetitive and interactive environment, it is not likely to emerge. In other words, the effect does not manifest itself beyond the sterilized confines of the laboratory and thus likely to carry significantly less importance than previously thought.
