Leiva Arcas, Alejandro

The objective of this study was to analyze the probabilities of Spanish high-level athletes according to gender for participating and achieving sporting success in the 2008, 2012 and 2016 Olympic Games. Data relating to a sample of 3757 high-level Spanish athletes (2398 men and 1359 women) between 2005 and 2016 were examined. This could explain the gender differences in these parameters and the trend towards more egalitarian data in recent years.
