Abstract

In recent years, volunteering has received strong research attention from both scholars and practitioners. For the most part, involvement in volunteer activities has been identified as an important determinant of future volunteering. Through revalidating an existing instrument, the purpose of this study was to assess the dimensions of volunteer satisfaction at the 2012 London Olympic Games and its impact on future volunteer behaviour. The findings of this study shed light on the identification of volunteer satisfaction factors in the mega sporting event setting, particularly for a unique type of volunteer (i.e. media worker) assigned to a special set of tasks. Unlike Galindo-Kuhn and Guzley’s results that revealed participation efficacy and group integration to be strong predictors of volunteer satisfaction, organizational support was the primary predictor for media centre volunteers’ re-participation intention towards future volunteering programmes.  相似文献   

哈密市沙漠体育旅游赛事资源开发构想与对策分析     

任婷 《当代体育科技》2020,(12):224-224,226

哈密市沙漠旅游发展的晚,尚属于不成熟期,有不少旅游资源亟待开发,沙漠体育旅游赛事资源就是其中重要一项。哈密市的经济实力较强,旅游资源丰富,在沙漠旅游体育赛事的开发上具有鲜明的代表性,对国内其他城市的沙漠旅游体育赛事的开发有借鉴作用。本文运用实地走访法,以哈密市沙漠旅游体育赛事的开发构想为例,展开调查与研究,找出在开发问题中可能遇到的问题和困难,并提出意见和建议为更好地指导哈密市开展沙漠体育旅游赛事提供现实指导。  相似文献   

粤港澳大湾区跨境体育消费实证研究* ——以广东居民赴香港参加体育赛事为例     

王淋燕  周良君  李洋洋  丘庆达 《广州体育学院学报》2020,(5):1-8

粤港澳大湾区以其独特的地理优势，在国家发展大局中具有重要的战略地位。采用问卷调查、深度访谈和中介效应分析等方法，选取广东居民赴香港参加体育赛事者为调查对象，了解两岸居民参与体育赛事受到哪些因素的影响及其影响程度，帮助相关部门企业制定合理策略促进两岸体育爱好者交流及地方经济增长，同时进一步拓展了跨境消费行为研究,特别是跨境体育消费研究。结果显示，赛事产品因素及相关吸引因素对个人态度及行为意愿具有重要影响，而经济因素和交通因素对于跨境体育消费者的决策影响十分有限。通关因素、货币汇率因素对跨境参加体育赛事影响不明显。  相似文献   

A new conceptualization of mega sports event legacy delivery: Wicked problems and critical realist solution     

《Sport Management Review》2020,23(2):171-182

The authors present a new conceptualization of mega sports event legacy delivery, which accounts for the problematic nature of legacy by viewing it as a wicked problem. Research on mega sports event legacy has focused on establishing typologies of legacy, investigating outcomes, and consequences, with limited attention to legacy delivery. The conceptualization of legacy delivery has largely relied on a positive, utopian legacy rhetoric. In contrast, the authors advance the understanding of legacy by proposing a conceptual approach of the legacy delivery process, to enable empirical studies in different contexts to be conducted. Specifically, the authors examine the wicked problem of mega sports event legacy delivery from a Critical Realist perspective, which serves to give meaning and order to this complex process. This conceptualization reveals that legacy delivery is inclusive of deep social structures which underpin different stakeholders’ interpretations and interactions, which produce or limit legacy delivery. The role of social, generative structures as causal mechanisms has not been considered as a way to understand legacy delivery previously. Implications for teaching, research, and practice are discussed to demonstrate the value of this new approach. Importantly, this conceptualization focuses on processes rather than outcomes and encourages the identification of unexpected or unanticipated components of legacy delivery beyond the formal policies and plans designed to create or leverage legacy.  相似文献   

我国马拉松跑者深度休闲特质的质性研究     

田海波  周文婷  邱亚君  齐震 《沈阳体育学院学报》2020,(1):54-60

在"马拉松热"的背景下,对跑步参与过程中马拉松跑者的深度休闲特质进行探究。采用滚雪球抽样方式,对20名马拉松跑者进行半结构式访谈,通过质性分析软件NVivo 11.0对访谈资料进行分析。研究结果表明马拉松跑者具有深度休闲的6个特质:坚持不懈、生涯性、显著的个人努力、强烈的认同感、独特的文化、持久的收益。本研究进一步丰富了已有研究成果,其中坚持不懈中的"毅力"和"自我管理"两方面体现了马拉松项目的特点。对马拉松跑者来讲,经济回报和团队发展并不是明显的持久收益。本研究结果拓展了对我国"马拉松热"现象的理解,未来应采用定量方法进行深入研究。  相似文献

或有事项作为特殊的不确定性事项，是不确定性会计的重要内容。或有事项的确认和披露是当前会计理论和实务中的一大难点。要正确理解和运用财政部发布的《企业会计准则——或有事项》，必须明确或有事项与未来事项、估计事项及资产负债表日后事项的区别；正确理解负债、预计负债和或有负债之间的关系；正确区分或有事项的各种可能性及其会计处理；正确核算因或有事项确认的负债及相关的资产。  相似文献   

Consumer attitudes towards ambush marketing     

《Sport Management Review》2015,18(2):280-290

Studies of consumer attitudes towards ambush marketing are in conclusive and have not investigated whether those attitudes are industry specific. Rather than just refer to ‘an organisation’ (i.e. non-industry specific), an industry-specific approach specifies the organisation's core business activity. We propose that individuals expect a higher standard of advertising from banks as compared to beer companies and that this would be reflected in more negative attitudes towards banks that engage in questionable promotional practices. A demographically and geographically representative sample of New Zealanders (n = 514) was surveyed one week following the final match of the 2011 Rugby World Cup. Three items measuring consumer attitudes towards ambush marketing were adapted from the work of Portlock and Rose (2009). These three items were further adapted to specify bank or beer companies. The results indicate that most individuals perceive ambush marketing as unethical and a practice that organisations should not utilise. However, no evidence was found to support the proposition that individuals hold banks to a higher standard than beer companies in terms of ambush marketing. Demographic variables – age, gender and location – were not significantly associated with differing attitudes.  相似文献
