This study aims to explore research trends in the field of sport marketing from 2019 to 2024 using a systematic literature review as the research method. This study examines two globally recognized journals in sport marketing: Sport Marketing Quarterly (SMQ) and the International Journal of Sports Marketing and Sponsorship (IJSMS). The findings show that from 2019 to 2024, SMQ published a total of 134 articles, while IJSMS published 285 articles. In terms of research contexts, SMQ articles predominantly focused on countries in the Americas, whereas IJSMS articles were primarily centered on Asian countries. Quantitative research was the most commonly used research design in both journals, while mixed-method designs were less frequently employed. The most frequently used theories in SMQ and IJSMS articles included social identity theory, attribution theory, and the technology acceptance model. The keyword frequency analysis results were similar for both journals. This study helps future researchers grasp international research trends in sport marketing and enables domestic scholars to understand the development of sport marketing research across different national and cultural contexts. It also provides future research directions and promotes academic exchange on an international level. |
