Yes. The only study I am aware of was the Deprelli one and I personally
do feel that there is a definite trend in the error rate that indicate
that the even/odd ply effect has been reduced. But it was one study. I
do remain optimistic that over a greater number of positions the trend
would hold in bot play.

This post (and the thread in general) of Philippe's may give you a
