As mudanças de cidades de times da NFL geram impacto econômico?uma investigação usando a metodologia ArCo - Artificial Counterfactual

Resumo

The present project aims at analyzing possible impacts from changes in the base-city of NFL teams during the period comprising from 1990 to the early 21th century. Data regarding employment rate and income in those regions would be the main basis of the diagnosis. Therefore, a detailed analysis of the behavior of these variables after the moment of the move from the team to a new town would reveal whether there was an economic impact. The model applied would be the ArCo, developed in Carvalho, Masini e Medeiros (2018). There is an extensive biography available regarding studies related to economic impacts generated by professional sports’ practice in specific regions, always associating the benefits granted by the government with the economic benefit generated by the arrival or departure of a professional team to that region. However, this work significantly differs from the others because in none of them there is the application of a counterfactual model. Therefore, the approach of the present work will be the first one to attempt at demonstrating the economic impacts after the arrival of professional sports teams using this type of statistical model. Author did not found relevant economic effects in variables that were analyzed in this study.
