“…The third contribution is the confirmatory factor analysis, complementing other studies (e.g., Houlfort et al, 2015;Forest et al, 2011;, but adding again the sport organisational context. Investigating and confirming the applicability of the DMP in two distinctive sport organisational contexts contributes to the discussion in regards to how passion should be measured in different domains.…”

“…Although harmonious and obsessive passions both represent a passion, they nevertheless relate differently to various outcomes as hypothesized by the DMP. Specifically, harmonious passion is positively related, whereas obsessive passion is either unrelated or negatively related, to psychological adjustment indices (e.g., Donahue et al, 2012;Fernet, Lavigne, Vallerand, & Austin, 2014;Houlfort, Philippe, Vallerand, & Ménard, 2014;Houlfort, Vallerand, Laframboise, Fernet, & Koestner, 2015;Lafrenière, St-Louis, Vallerand, & Donahue, 2012;Lafrenière, Vallerand, & Sedikides, 2013;Philippe, Vallerand, & Lavigne, 2009;Rousseau & Vallerand, 2008;Vallerand, 2012;Vallerand et al, 2007) and positive emotions and flow during activity engagement (e.g., Carpentier, Mageau, & Vallerand, 2012; Lafrenière, Jowett, Vallerand, Donahue, & Lorimer, 2008, Study 2;Vallerand, Rousseau, Grouzet, Dumais, & Grenier, 2006, Study 2).…”

HighlightsImpulsivity is related to obsessive passion for screen-based activities.Obsessive passion predicts problematic screen-based activity outcomes.Harmonious passion is related to adaptive screen-based activity outcomes.Impulsivity can be a key personality variable of the Dualistic Model of Passion. Passion on the Screen 2 AbstractThe purpose of the present research was to look at the correlates of passion towards screen-based activities. In two studies, we aimed to test the role of impulsivity as a predictor of obsessive (but not harmonious) passion for Facebook use and series watching. We also aimed to distinguish between problematic and non-problematic correlates as pertains to Facebook use and TV series watching. Based on the Dualistic Model of Passion, it was hypothesized that Harmonious passion would be positively associated with adaptive correlates and Obsessive passion to less positive and even negative ones in both types of activities. In two studies, young adults (Study 1 = 256; Study 2 = 420) completed the Passion Scale with respect to Facebook Use and Series Watching, respectively, the UPPS Impulsivity Scale, and scales measuring problematic and nonproblematic correlates associated with engaging in such activities. The results provided support for the proposed model: Impulsivity predicted obsessive (but not harmonious) passion. Obsessive passion was positively associated with negative correlates such as Facebook overuse whereas harmonious passion was positively associated with adaptive correlates such as self-development through series watching. These results suggest that it is the type of passion underlying activity engagement that determines what is experienced. The Case of Impulsivity and the Problematic and Non-Problematic Series Watching and Facebook UseIn Indonesia and in the Philippines people spend an average more than 500 minutes every day looking at screens. In the USA this number is 444 minutes that includes 147 minutes spent watching TV, 103 minutes in front of a computer, 151 minutes on a smartphones, and 43 minutes with a tablet (Quartz, 2014). Over the recent years, screen-based activities as series (or TV show) watching and Facebook use slowly became a significant part of the leisure time activities. In a recent study of the Netflix Media Center (2013), 73% of binge-watching streamers-those who watch more than one episode per occasion-have positive feelings towards this activity and 80% of them claim that they would rather watch an episode of a good series than to watch and read the social media activity of their friends. Most recently, Netflix started to broadcast in more than 200 countries, reaching viewers all around the globe (Netflix, 2016). In addition to the growing popularity of series watching, social media use is also a prevalent phenomenon. Facebook is currently the most popular social networking site, overtaking Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Google Plus (Ebizmba, 2015). As of January 2015, it had more than one billion active users with almost half of them (48%) ...

“…As mentioned earlier, individuals who have high obsessive passion for an activity are more likely to choose to adamantly continue their pursuit of the beloved activity (Curran et al 2015;Houlfort et al 2015) and to remain engaged in the activity even when presented with information suggesting the imprudence of this course of action (Stephan et al 2009). In the context of entrepreneurship, such behavior includes disregarding (or putting minimal emphasis on) information about the high financial costs associated with failure when choosing whether to pursue potential opportunities.…”
