I would like to measure the perceived authenticity of a selection of sports events through an on-line survey sent to the participants. After this first step, I will select some cases for a deeper and more qualitative analysis. Therefore, I would like to know if some questionnaires that could be adapted to my research already exist in the literature?
Dear Joel,
Perhaps there is not anything exactly matching you question (perhaps you can reformulate it) but these papers may interest you or give you ideas:
Sporting events affect spectators' cardiovascular mortality: it is not just a game. Leeka J, Schwartz BG, Kloner RA. Am J Med. 2010 Nov;123(11):972-7.
Publicizing female athletes' weights: implications for female psychology undergraduates acting as spectators. Holm-Denoma J, Smith A, Waesche M. Res Q Exerc Sport. 2014 Sep;85(3):420-5.
Mobile mapping of sporting event spectators using bluetooth sensors: tour of flanders 2011. Versichele M, Neutens T, Goudeseune S, van Bossche F, van de Weghe N. Sensors (Basel). 2012 Oct 22;12(10):14196-213.
Noise levels among spectators at an intercollegiate sporting event. England B, Larsen JB. Am J Audiol. 2014 Mar;23(1):71-8.
Keeping sports participants safe in hot weather. Sparling PB, Millard-Stafford M. Phys Sportsmed. 1999 Jul;27(7):27-34.
Sports for the physically disabled. The 1976 Olympiad (Toronto). Jackson RW, Fredrickson A. Am J Sports Med. 1979 Sep-Oct;7(5):293-6.
Emergency medical care for spectators attending National Football League games. Roberts DM, Blackwell TH, Marx JA. Prehosp Emerg Care. 1997 Jul-Sep;1(3):149-55.
The impact of a simulated grand tour on sleep, mood, and well-being of competitive cyclists. Lastella M, Roach GD, Halson SL, Martin DT, West NP, Sargent C. J Sports Med Phys Fitness. 2014 Oct 6.
Simulation is probably a good method for those who use to oarticipate and those who use to look upon the event.
Measurements for authenticity in general:
Using qualitative mixed methods to study small health care organizations while maximising trustworthiness and authenticity. Phillips CB, Dwan K, Hepworth J, Pearce C, Hall S. BMC Health Serv Res. 2014 Nov 19;14(1):559.
Examining the relationship between authenticity and self-handicapping. Akin A, Akin U. Psychol Rep. 2014 Dec;115(3):795-804.
Predictive role of authenticity on psychological vulnerability in Turkish university students. Satici SA, Kayis AR, Akin A. Psychol Rep. 2013 Apr;112(2):519-28.
What you can do is to give a questionnaire to participants and spectations before and after an event and then calculate an interraterr ealiability coefficient.
Hi Béatrice,
Thank you for your very interesting feedback. Sure it will help.
