ABSTRACT

Purpose

To use a new methodological approach, the Kano method, to explore the role of passion and addiction across runner groups.

Methodology/Design

Within the literature, passion/addiction has received scant attention; especially in relation to how they might influence long-term participation. Research has largely focused a one-dimensional measurement where passion/addiction is linear. We argue for deeper analysis using the Kano method.

Findings

The Kano method does provide novel outcomes regarding the role of passion and addiction in running.

Practical implications

The Kano approach can help stakeholders to better understand how the presence or absence of an activity influences runners’ attitudes and behavior. The functional/dysfunctional statements allow a deeper examination beyond one statement that a Likert scale of strongly disagree to strongly agree explains.

Research contribution

The method to explore passion/addiction uses unidimensional Likert scales that suggest these constructs are bipolar (harmony – disharmony). Kano argues they do not lie on a continuum, which allows for a novel approach to explore these concepts beyond the traditional scales commonly used in psychometric research.

Originality/Value

These results enhance prior research on runners as the influences of passion and addiction yielded unique results that cannot be explained without the use of the Kano method.

了解跑步者的热情和成瘾：卡诺方法分析

摘要

目的

使用新的方法论——卡诺法，探索跑步者群体中激情和成瘾的作用。

方法/设计

在文献中，激情/成瘾很少受到关注。特别是在它们如何影响长期参与方面。研究主要集中在一维测量上，其中热情/成瘾是线性的。我们主张使用卡诺方法进行更深入的分析。

发现

卡诺方法确实提供了关于激情和成瘾在跑步中的作用的新颖结果。

实际影响

卡诺方法可以帮助利益相关者更好地了解活动的存在或不存在如何影响跑步者的态度和行为。功能性/功能失调性陈述允许对一种陈述进行更深入的检查，而不仅仅是用李克特量表从强烈不同意到强烈同意所解释的陈述。

研究贡献

探索激情/成瘾的方法使用一维李克特量表，表明这些结构是双极的（和谐 - 不和谐）。卡诺认为，它们并不处于一个连续体上，这使得我们可以采用一种新颖的方法来探索这些概念，超越心理测量研究中常用的传统量表。

原创性/价值

这些结果增强了先前对跑步者的研究，因为激情和成瘾的影响产生了独特的结果，如果不使用卡诺方法就无法解释这些结果。
