“El perfil del turista deportivo en el campeonato europeo de remo 2013”

Abstract

La investigación ha abordado el análisis del perfil del turista deportivo del Campeonato Europeo de Remo 2013. Para ello, se examinaron las características de 118 asistentes (43 mujeres y 75 hombres), siendo 69 extranjeros y 49 españoles. Los principales hallazgos muestran que el perfil del turista deportivo es hombre soltero menor de 35 años que asiste con un acompañante en el caso de los españoles y hasta cuatro personas en los extranjeros. Igualmente, los asistentes extranjeros revelan una mayor asistencia a eventos deportivos al año y, un mayor número de pernoctaciones con mayor gasto en hotel y por día.

Studying Well and Performing Well: A Bayesian Analysis on Team and Individual Rowing Performance in Dual Career Athletes

“…As regards the results obtained, it should be indicated, pursuant to an extensive tradition of studies on the Ringelmann effect, in our study, through the simulation of the sports discipline of rowing, that the results are congruent with those results found by previous studies (Kugihara, 1999;Caracuel et al, 2011;Haugen et al, 2016;Karau and Williams, 2016) demonstrating clear differences between all the objective performance parameters, as a classical statistical analysis is used, followed by a Bayesian analysis creating two different probability trees, one for each of the two conditions of the study.…”

“…Surprisingly, it seems that being a male athlete somehow "prevents" the emergence of the social loafing effect, as when the amount of watts is set to achieve 100% High, more male rowers probability is required, and to achieve a hypothetical 100% Low, that probability has to be inversely reduced. This datum has not been sufficiently reflected in prior studies on team performance and sex or gender (Kerr and Bruun, 1983;Harkins, 1987;René et al, 2006;Caracuel et al, 2011;Hagen, 2015;Haugen et al, 2016;Karau and Williams, 2016;Latané et al, 2019), nor in those that evaluate the psychological dynamics in team sports (Kerr and Bruun, 1983;Harkins, 1987;Hogg and Vaughan, 2010;Høigaard et al, 2010Høigaard et al, , 2013Czyż et al, 2016;Jaenes et al, 2018). Given its practical implications, it deserves to be thoroughly studied in future research.…”

“…However, in the individual rowing condition in the sample studied, the probability values found in our sample clearly indicate that the changes in the probability of the two "epidemiological" tops: academic record (with a really high probability value) and type of sport practiced (individual or team), together with the two behavioral variables, the strokes (at 50% between High and Low) and the meters covered (high probability of occurrence), have an impact on the two nodes and, above all, on the bottom one, which is the value of the watt input or energy exerted (its probability seems to be almost 50% between high and low). The fact that the number of strokes (observable behavior and more easily quantifiable) are not in any case a bottom variable or "daughter" of the other variables, but the watts (the force exerted in each one of them in the two conditions) are, is a very relevant datum that has not previously been observed (Kerr and Bruun, 1983;Caracuel et al, 2011;Høigaard et al, 2013;Czyż et al, 2016;Haugen et al, 2016;Jaenes et al, 2018).…”

“…He stated that the maximum result of a team does not equate to the total maximum individual effort (Kosonogov, 2015), with the differences between the real performance and the envisaged performance of the group broadening as the number of members increased. Since then, an extensive line of research has been undertaken on the phenomenon of social loafing, which is now understood as a common phenomenon that occurs in numerous tasks and by both genders (Caracuel et al, 2011;Haugen et al, 2016;Karau and Williams, 2016). In particular, public evaluation or making public the contribution of each member to the total performance of the group, have been highlighted as key situational factors in inhibiting part of social loafing, supporting the idea that this phenomenon could be explained as a loss of motivation caused by a lower degree of recognition or evaluation (Kerr and Bruun, 1983;Harkins, 1987;René et al, 2006;Gavala González, 2010;Gavala-González, 2012;Hagen, 2015;Latané et al, 2019).…”
