How Perception Can Boost Sports Performance\\
There's an interesting article in the NY Times about perception and sports performance. What's interesting to me particularly, is that they make some claims that counter arguments I've made on this board.

Now, I think they seem to be making a couple of assumptions that aren't supported by data:
1) "hot streaks" are not random events
2) a correlation between confidence and success implies that confidence creates success (wrt to shooting/kicking)
Regardless, the paper is interesting.
