在这篇文章中，我们分析了Hiller（2015）最近提出的一种评估足球运动员重要性的新指标与球员表现的经典指标之间的关系。使用最先进的自举相关检验和德国足球联赛球队的数据集（德甲），我们发现的证据表明，即使这种新的游戏理论方法没有显着的相关性，以大量的性能指标，它与学术研究中通常使用的一些最重要的测量方法有着密切的关系（例如，体育杂志公布的球员得分和比赛次数）。这些结果表明，理论上有吸引力的新措施可以被认为是一个有趣的变量，在薪酬绩效回归，并应在未来的研究中使用相应的。
In this article, we analyse the relation of a new measure for evaluating the importance of soccer players, recently proposed by Hiller (2015), to classic metrics of player performance. Using state-of-the-art bootstrap correlation testing and a data set of teams for the German soccer league (Bundesliga), we find evidence that even though this new game-theoretical approach has no significant correlation to a large number of performance measures, it is significantly related to some of the most important measures typically used in academic research (e.g. the player scores published by sports magazines and the number of played matches). These results indicate that the theoretically appealing new measure can be considered an interesting variable in pay–performance regressions and should be used accordingly in future research.
