The curvilinear effects of relative positions in smartphone app leaderboards on physical activity
To date, the nuanced effects of relative positions in leaderboards on health behaviors remain unclear. This study partly fills this void and aims to examine the effects of relative positions in smartphone app-based leaderboards on users’ physical activity . We propose and test a curvilinear effect in the form of a U shape. In Study 1 ( n = 1,585), we use a survey-experimental design to manipulate 16 relative positions and a generalized additive m…
Fan Attitude Toward Athlete Activism for Black Lives Matter
This confirmatory study aims to empirically validate the mechanisms by which fans form positive attitudes toward athlete activism for Black Lives Matter (BLM). Based on previous findings grounded in race theories and the meaning transfer model, the authors postulate that two factors explain positive attitudes toward athlete activism for BLM: fans' support for the cause and athlete fandom. Four studies involving Black and White fans from the U.S.,…

Human Dimensions of Air Quality
Poor ambient air quality is one of today’s greatest environmental health risks. However, unlike water, wildland fire, or wildlife, comparatively less human dimensions scholarship has focused on air resources. The papers in this special issue highlight how people across varying cultures, geographies, and identities create and relate to varying air quality conditions. In doing so, the issue challenges dominant perspectives of air pollution as a pur…
Perceived similarity determines social comparison effects of more and less physically active others
This research tested whether the effects of physical activity (PA) comparisons depend on the perceived similarity to comparison standards. In 3 experimental studies, participants compared themselves to a more or a less physically active person. Results showed that perceived similarity determined comparison outcomes: Participants' PA self-evaluation and self-efficacy were higher when focusing on similarities with more (vs less) (Study 1) and dissi…
Fan centricity of German soccer teams
The goal of the present study is to conceptualize fan centricity and explore its consequences. The study focuses on German soccer teams and used in-depth interviews with 26 experts and inductive coding procedures to categorize the experts’ opinions on defining the construct and on perceived consequences. Based on the results, fan centricity is defined as an organization’s strategic and operational focus on the establishment and maintenance of rel…
Health Benefit Assessment of Running in Urban Areas against the Background of Particulate Matter 2.5 Concentration
Air pollution while exercising is a health threat to urban residents. The study’s purpose is to conduct a health benefit assessment for running against the background of the Particulate Matter (PM) 2.5 concentration, taking the Munich Olympic Park as a case. The health benefit assessment was done under the assumption that people exercise at different PM2.5 concentrations and with varying duration and intensity. PM2.5 concentrations in and around …

A conceptual model and research agenda for bidding, planning and delivering Major sport events that lever human rights
In this conceptual article, the authors propose a framework for how progressive human rights outcomes may be obtained in the context of bidding, planning and implementing major sport events (MSEs) through the implementation of four pathways, including good governance, the democratic participation of stakeholders, the formalisation of human rights agendas and the deployment of sensitive urban development. The authors argue that there is a need for…
Mapping research on legacy of mega sporting events
Findings from empirical studies on the legacy of hosting a mega sporting event are inconclusive. This paper considers empirical studies published in English language peer-reviewed journals between 1997 and 2016 to identify trends and gaps in current knowledge related to event-attributed changes in structures, consequences, and stakeholder evaluations. Following systematic literature search guidelines, 233 articles (238 studies) were coded. The au…
Active Transportation Decision-Making against the Background of Air Quality Information Provision
The study aims to assess whether, and how, provision of information about air quality along inner-city roads influences individuals’ intentions to walk further away from traffic-dense roads. In an experiment, German residents (n = 597) were either exposed to a map that showed, or a map that did not show, air pollution levels along two routes. The routes had the same starting and end points but differed with respect to expected traffic density. Fu…

Quality of life of residents living in a city hosting mega-sport events
There was no positive effect of the hosting of the mega-sport event on the four quality of life domains of the panel members (who were residents of a city hosting a mega-sport event) per se. The individual changes in quality of life vary by perception of atmosphere and by domain of quality of life
Open Innovation in Nonprofit Sports Clubs
This research paper investigates open innovation—that is, the use of purposive inflows and outflows of knowledge in order to innovate—in the context of nonprofit sports clubs, and is based on the content analysis of semi-structured interviews held with representatives of eleven sports clubs. The study develops a framework that describes open innovation activities in nonprofit sports clubs as facets of four superordinate dimensions, namely permeab…
Behavioural effects of directive cues on front-of-package nutrition information
Objective Nutrition information aims to reduce information asymmetries between manufacturers and consumers. To date, however, it remains unclear how nutrition information that is shown on the front of the packaging should be designed in order to increase both visual attention and the tendency to make healthful food choices. The present study aimed to address this gap in research. Design An experimental laboratory study applying mobile eye-trackin…
