올림픽 메달의 자료 포락 분석: 아테네 하계올림픽과 토리노 동계올림픽을 중심으로 = Data Envelopment Analysis on Olympic medals : Focusing on Athens Olympic Games and Torino Winter Olympic Games

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This thesis analyzed that which countries won the Olympic medals more efficiently at the Olympic Games. Unlike the previous studies, I measured efficiency under the CRS, found implications for investment to improve sports skills through understanding the characteristics of sports race. A methods for research is a DEA-based approach which measures efficiency by using the data only, not assuming the parameters. The inputs are total population and GDP, the output is Olympic medals at 2004 Athens Olympic Games and 2006 Turin Winter Olympic Games. I applied different weights based on the medal colors. The results showed the tendencies that the larger the scales of total population and GDP were, the lower efficient values were. These tendencies imply that sports skills are related with the law of diminishing returns and international convergence. According to these phenomenons, surging investments for sports performance are hard to get proper justification. In the case of limited resources, investing uniformly in various sport entries is more productive than in just one or two sport entries.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 논문은 올림픽에서의 성적기준인 올림픽메달을 어느 국가가 가장 효율적으로 따내고 있는가를 분석하고, 스포츠 경기력의 특성을 파악하여 올림픽 및 스포츠 경기력 향상을 위한 투자에 대해 시사점을 찾고자 한다. 연구방법은 분석 대상 개체의 자료만으로 효율을 측정하는 DEA접근법으로 하였고, VRS하에서의 측정인 선행연구와는 달리 CRS하의 효율을 측정하였다. 투입물은 총인구와 GDP로 하였고 산출물은 최근 하계올림픽인 그리이스 아테네 올림픽메달과 동계올림픽인 이탈리아 토리노 올림픽메달을 활용하였다. 금 은 동메달의 메달색깔에 따라 가중치를 반영 하였다. 효율 측정 결과는 총인구와 GDP의 규모가 큰 국가의 효율이 낮게 나타나고 총인구와 GDP의 규모가 작은 국가의 효율이 높게 나타나는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 스포츠 경기력의 수확체감(the law of diminishing returns)현상, 스포츠 경기력의 국제적 수렴(convergence)현상, 스포츠 성과의 특수성으로 파악할 수 있다. 이러한 현상으로 인해 스포츠 경기력 향상을 위한 투자는, 동일한 투자일 경우 일부 종목에 집중 투자하는 것보다는 여러 종목에 고르게 투자를 하는 것이 올림픽메달 획득에는 유리하다는 시사점을 도출하였다.
