A Study on the Ritual Interaction Mechanism of Consumption Scene Reshaping in Professional Sports Leagues
Against the backdrop of the convergent development of the digital economy and the sports event economy, and in response to the new requirements for the high-quality development of China’s professional sports leagues during the 15th Five-Year Plan period, the reshaping of consumption scenes has become a pivotal entry point for unlocking the leagues’ composite value. Drawing on Collins’s interaction ritual chain theory, this study examine the ritual elements, driving forces, consumption conversion mechanisms, and migration mechanisms involved in the reshaping of consumption scenes in professional sports leagues. The findings show that offline consumption scenes are characterized by physical co-presence, symbolic boundaries, overlapping foci of attention, and graded interactional rhythms, whereas online consumption scenes reconstruct ritual interaction through virtual co-presence, multiple symbolic barriers to participation, focal differentiation, and affective synchronization through real-time bullet-screen comments. The reshaping of consumption scenes is jointly driven by the endogenous driving force of emotional attachment, the identity performance of symbolic capital, the ritual transformation generated by collective effervescence, and the multiplier effect of fan communities. These dynamics are translated into consumer behavior through three pathways-emotional response, identity identification, and moral objectification-while online and offline rituals form an interconnected, symbiotic ritual network through a closed loop of accumulation, realization, and archiving. The study further identifies persistent constraints, including participation stratification, emotional fragmentation, consumption conversion bottlenecks, and weak continuity across scenes. Accordingly, it proposes practical strategies centered on tiered fan participation, full-cycle content operation, service-chain integration, and cross-platform coordination.

The study of sport spectatorship has an increasing focus on the importance of fandom beyond fan violence. Fundamental to understanding fan behavior are the meaningful rituals and emotions experienced by fans. In this paper, I use the theoretical work of Randall Collins to examine the ritualistic outcomes of collective effervescence, emotional energy, and group symbols and solidarity among sport fans. I illustrate these concepts using case study data from participant observation of fans of a U.S. football team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, and content analysis of news articles. I extend Collins’ interaction ritual (IR) theory by taking the group as the unit of analysis and analyzing group solidarity beyond situational interactions and typical sport settings, including the significant life events of weddings and funerals. While critiquing Collins’ (2004) a priori portrayal of sports fans, the analysis advances IR theory, improving its utility for understanding sports fan behavior.

Atmospheres are experiences of place involving transformations of consumers’ behaviors and emotions. Existing marketing research reveals how atmospheric stimuli, service performances, and ritual place-making enhance place experiences and create value for firms. Yet it remains unclear how shared experiences of atmosphere emerge and intensify among groups of people during collective live events. Accordingly, this article uses sociological interaction ritual theory to conceptualize “social atmospheres”: rapidly changing qualities of place created when a shared focus aligns consumers’ emotions and behavior, resulting in lively expressions of collective effervescence. With data from an ethnography of an English Premier League football stadium, the authors identify a four-stage process of creating atmospheres in interaction ritual chains. This framework goes beyond conventional retail and servicescape design by demonstrating that social atmospheres are mobile and cocreated between firms and consumers before, during, and after a main event. The study also reveals how interaction rituals can be disrupted and offers insight as to how firms can balance key tensions in creating social atmospheres as a means to enhance customer experiences, customer loyalty, and communal place attachments.

Factors believed to be motivations responsible for sport fandom include eustress, self-esteem, escape, entertainment, economic, aesthetic, group affiliation, and family needs. However, these factors have been untested empirically, and a valid and reliable measure of sport fan motivation has been unavailable to researchers. The current two studies were an attempt to develop such a measure. The construction and validation of a 23-item Likert-scale measure, the Sport Fan Motivation Scale, are described. Discussion centers on possible uses for the instrument.

It is difficult for curriculum reform to achieve sustainable success without support from teachers in the front line. The authors of this paper investigated teacher factors behind the successful implementation of a reformed instructional model, the Dao Jiang Ping (DJP) model, in China. This study is part of a longitudinal project (2012–2017) that reported the level of DJP implementation and explored factors that influence teachers’ implementation. This paper mainly focuses on the latter. Six teachers were examined to look for reasons behind their different levels of DJP implementation. The theory of planned behavior (TPB), which has been widely used to explain and predict people’s behavior or intention to perform a behavior, is used as the theoretical framework for the study. Referring to the TPB framework, this study summarized factors into individual factors, perceived social factors and perceived contextual factors. Furthermore, the authors suggest extending the TPB framework by including teachers’ understanding of the reform ideas to facilitate its application in order to explore factors in reform contexts. Lastly, this study discusses several important factors that help teachers to implement new teaching methodologies continually, thus promoting the sustainable implementation of reforms.
