Global media services face challenges of digital convergence and platformization. In response, content providers directly stream audiovisual content on online platforms, allowing users access to high quality content. Due to technological advancements and COVID 19, binge watching is now a favored leisure activity for professionals. Based on self determination theory, diverse psychological needs generate distinct binge watching motivations, influencing flow experiences and behaviors. These needs and experiences may be influenced by the individual's inherent introverted or extroverted traits. This study explores whether binge watching motivations impact behaviors through flow experiences, investigating mediation effects and personality trait moderation. Using questionnaires, the study surveyed 342 professionals, yielding these findings: (1) Marital status, age, income lead to differences in motivations, flow experiences, and behaviors. (2) Entertainment, social interaction, and information acquisition motivations positively influence behaviors through flow mediation. (3) Emotional regulation and immersion motivations directly impact behaviors, and also mediated by flow. (4) Extroverted professionals show stronger influence of social motivations through flow; introverted professionals, of information motivations. |
