Scholarly Interest
My primary research interest involves consumer behavior associated with esports. To better understand this rapidly emerging phenomenon, I have focused on exploring the determinants of esports playing behavior and its relationship with various other esports consumption behaviors such as purchasing in-game items, streaming, and attending.
I am also interested in examining variables associated with sportscape affecting sport consumption behavior. Pursuant to this interest, my research has focused on examining how physical environment factors and emotions interact with sport consumers? behavioral responses in various sport contexts, including esportscape (i.e., physical/ social atmosphere of esports venues).
