When athletes compete outside their home division, do they earn different scores and national points?
Average FSP difference by travel direction. Positive = earned more points away.
Average FSP difference when travelling, by home division.
Each dot is one away event. Differences are vs the athlete's home division average. Upper-left quadrant = lower score but MORE points (formula bias).
Athletes who competed in at least one event outside their home division, with home data for comparison.
Home events are competitions hosted in the athlete's registered division. Away events are competitions hosted in a different division.
Score diff = average away score − average home score. Positive means the athlete scored higher in away events.
FSP diff = average away FSP − average home FSP. Positive means the athlete earned more national points in away events. When FSP goes up while score stays flat or drops, it reveals that the 3rd-place anchoring formula inflates points in shallower fields.
Events included: Regional MO (singles moguls) events this season (code starting with "U", on or after Sep 1 2025). National-level and "Other" hosted events are excluded.
Sample sizes: Some directions have very few athletes. Rows and bars show (n=X) to indicate sample size. Interpret small samples with caution.
FSP formula: Podium placements receive fixed points (1st=900, 2nd=875, 3rd=855). Below 3rd: FSP = (Athlete Score / 3rd Place Score) × 855.
