Title says it all.
Any research done on this? Would love to hear some educated thoughts on the subject.

PS: Could the jump ball be the only aspect of the game where the height of the player plays a role? In real life, if a 5'11 player is a terrific rebounder, it doesn't necessarely mean he can jump higher than other players, and the ability to box out is not needed to win a jump ball. Could there be a hidden jump attribute?

You could very well be right. But rebounding has very little to do with the ability to win a jump ball.
