  • Consumer Motivation, Spectatorship Experience and the Degree of Overlap Between Traditional Sport and Esport.”
    COMPETITIVE SPORT IN WEB 2.0: CONSUMER MOTIVATION, SPECTATORSHIP EXPERIENCE, AND THE DEGREE OF OVERLAP BETWEEN TRADITIONAL SPORT AND ESPORT by JUE HOU ANDREW C. BILLINGS, COMMITTEE CHAIR CORY L. ARMSTRONG KENON A. BROWN JAMES D. LEEPER BRETT I. SHERRICK A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Journalism and Creative Media in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2019 Copyright Jue Hou 2019 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT In the 21st Century, eSport has gradually come into public sight as a new form of competitive spectator event. This type of modern competitive video gaming resembles the field of traditional sport in multiple ways, including players, leagues, tournaments and corporate sponsorship, etc. Nevertheless, academic discussion regarding the current treatment, benefit, and risk of eSport are still ongoing. This research project examined the status quo of the rising eSport field. Based on a detailed introduction of competitive video gaming history as well as an in-depth analysis of factors that constitute a sport, this study redefined eSport as a unique form of video game competition. From the theoretical perspective of uses and gratifications, this project focused on how eSport is similar to, or different from, traditional sports in terms of spectator motivations. The current study incorporated a number of previously validated-scales in sport literature and generated two surveys, and got 536 and 530 respondents respectively. This study then utilized the data and constructed the motivation scale for eSport spectatorship consumption (MSESC) through structural equation modeling.

  • “Análisis Cuantitativo Sobre Los E-Sports”
    “ANÁLISIS CUANTITATIVO SOBRE LOS E-SPORTS” Presentado por Álvaro Guijarro Marín ([email protected]). Para optar al Grado de Economía. Por la Universidad de Alicante. Dirigido por Luis Moreno Izquierdo. Resumen Tanto los E-Sports como la Realidad Virtual han sido los segmentos que más crecimiento han experimentado en la industria de los videojuegos. Este acelerado desarrollo de los E-Sports ha dejado dudas acerca de su potencial comunicativo y económico. Por ende, por un lado, esta investigación se centra -a nivel teórico- en explicar el concepto de los E-sports, mostrando su alcance comunicativo, tanto a nivel nacional como mundial. Por otro lado, -a nivel práctico- se realizará un análisis cuantitativo de las principales variables con el objetivo de mostrar una aproximación del impacto económico generado por dichas variables. Además, este análisis se enfocará en la variable “premios”, mediante la obtención de datos procedentes del año 2006 y sucesivos, cuyo objetivo es comprobar la importancia que éstos suponen tanto para el salario de algunos jugadores profesionales como para el crecimiento del sector de los E-Sports. Palabras clave: E-Sports, impacto económico, alncance comunicativo y premios. 2 Abstract Both E-Sports and Virtual Reality have been the segments that have experimented the most growth in the videogame industry. This accelerated development of the E-Sports has left doubts about its communicative and economic potential.

Executive summary The media industry is experiencing a massive digital transformation. This creates a complex and volatile environment for media companies and the transformation will significantly affect value flows going forward. Traditional media companies will need to take (tough) portfolio decisions as the digitization of the industry progresses. With a stronger domestic market and a higher share of audiovisual revenue, US-based media groups exhibit a more attractive economic performance than their European peers. Besides smaller scale, most European media groups also have sizeable legacy businesses in News & Print experiencing structural declines. However, as a consequence of this, European companies were forced to diversify aggressively into online segments, with online revenue of some of these companies now accounting for up to 50% (or, in some cases, more) of their total revenue.
