To identify the relations between new stadiums and home team performance and attendance for professional baseball (MLB) (n=14), basketball (NBA) (n=13), and football (NFL) (n=25) teams in the USA since 1950 dependent t tests assessed significance of increases in attendance in both MLB and the NBA and a significantly improved home winning percentage in MLB following the building of new stadiums. Implications include a better understanding of the rationales used by owners, fans, and players for building new stadiums.
为了确定自1950年以来美国职业棒球大联盟（MLB，n = 14）、职业篮球联赛（NBA，n = 13）和国家橄榄球联盟（NFL，n = 25）新建体育场馆与主队比赛成绩和上座率之间的关系，采用配对t检验评估了MLB和NBA上座率增长的显著性，以及新建体育场馆后MLB主队胜率的显著提高。这一结果有助于更好地理解球队老板、球迷和球员建造新体育场馆的理由。
