The purpose of this study was to examine competitiveness of sport product companies by brand origin in the Korean market by analyzing attribute evaluation of sport products, brand equity, and purchase intention and their causal relationship. Competitive sport brands were selected in global, Japanese, and Korean brands by a pilot survey. Then, this study selected a population participating in sports for all, elite sports, professional sports, and leisure sports and 498 effective questionnaires were secured. As a result, Korean consumers for sport products evaluated global sport brands in the highest level, Japanese sport brands in the moderate level, and Korean sport brands in the lowest level in the evaluation of attribute evaluation of sport products, brand equity, and purchase intention. Moreover, the evaluation of participating types in sports for all, elite sports, professional sports, and leisure sports showed the same result in the order of global, Japanese, and Korean sport brands. Global sport brands had a sequential causal relationship from attribute evaluation of sport products to brand equity and purchase intention and formed a consumption behavior model that attribute evaluation of sport products led to purchase intention. On the other hand, while Korean sport brands had a sequential causal relationship from attribute evaluation of sport products to brand equity and purchase intention, attribute evaluation of sport products did not lead to purchase intention. Finally, it was confirmed that global brands such as Nike and Adidas had a high market position and Korean sport consumers’ purchase behavior was determined based on information of product attributes and brand equity.

PURPOSE This study explores the impact of visual shape and exercise involvement on consumers' evaluation and happiness with healthy functional foods, specifically protein cookies. METHODS Using a one-factor design with two levels (pretty vs. ugly shape) and one measured variable (exercise involvement), we uncover interesting insights. RESULTS Consumers highly engaged in exercise show a greater purchase intention for ugly-shaped healthy functional foods compared to pretty-shaped ones. Conversely, consumers with low exercise involvement express a higher purchase intention and happiness when it comes to pretty-shaped healthy functional foods compared to their ugly counterparts. CONCLUSIONS These findings contribute to the sports management and sports science literature by shedding light on how visual shape influences the evaluation of healthy functional foods by sport consumers. Furthermore, this research offers valuable practical implications for designing the shape of such foods to cater to the preferences of sports enthusiasts.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect size of the relationship between team identification and their intention to attend sport events and intention to purchase licensed team merchandise using a Meta-analysis. [Methods] To accomplish the purpose of the study, multiple databases were visited (e.g., RISS, KISS, Library of National Assembly) and studies were collected using the keyword of team identification. Through the search process, total of 92 studies were identified, among which 20 studies provided Pearson correlation coefficients between team identification and intention to attend and 13 studies between team identification and intention to purchase licensed team merchandise. The 33 studies were analyzed using Comprehensive a Meta Analysis(CMA) program. The analyses were done using random effect model assuming there were significant heterogeneity among the studies included. [Results] The overall effect size between team identification and intention to attend sport games was .567 and .403 for between team identification and intention to purchase licensed team merchandise, which can be classified as large effect size(Cohen, 2013). Sub-group analyses were done using types of publication(journal article vs. thesis). The results of the sub-group analyses indicated that the effect size differences were statistically insignificant. [Conclusions] As indicated in many previous studies, team identification was found to be a significant predictor of sport consumers’ behaviors. However, future studies need to find the reasons of heterogeneity in effect sizes.
