Purpose: This study extended Perugini and Bagozzi's (2001) model of goal-directed behavior (MGB) and integrates the relationship quality (RQ) viewpoint to analyze university students' decision-making model of repurchase in Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL) games. Method: The study used a quantitative approach and obtained 429 usable questionnaires (a response rate of 85.8%). The collected data were statistically analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). Results: Apart from negative anticipated emotions, other MGB predictors and RQ exerted significant and positive effects on desire and behavioral intention. Originality: Based on the theoretical framework of MGB, this empirical analysis identified the influential factors of decision-making in sports spectating behavior, which will help professional sports managers to design appropriate marketing strategies. The study also concluded that establishing a good relationship quality with sports consumers can enhance the desire and behavioral intention of re-attendance to professional baseball games. |
