The academic field of Sport Management: past, present and future
The industry of sport currently has a big impact on our society, in areas as diverse as economics, mass media, health or politics. As a result of this new trend, a specific academic field, identified as ‘Sport Management’ has emerged in the past years. A study field that appears to have experienced a substantive growth over a short period of time. This paper has conducted a review on the relevant aspects that have shaped the identity of Sport Management as an academic field. For that purpose, documentary sources have been used as reference with a main focus in those produced by relevant authors of the Sport Management field, granting special attention to the theoretical construction of the …

Spectator emotions: Effects on quality, satisfaction, value, and future intentions
There is a great interest from the academic and professional fields to know the performance of sports enterprises from the point of view of the user and the sport spectators. This study analyzes relationships between service quality, perceived value, satisfaction, future intentions, and emotions of spectators of a professional basketball competition. A self-report survey yields data for 493 spectators. After confirming reliability and validity of the data collection measures, an application of structural equation modeling to empirical data tests the model. Results show that (1) service quality predicts spectators' satisfaction and perceived value, and that perceived value and satisfaction a…
Does size matter? Entrepreneurial orientation and performance in Spanish sports firms
The entrepreneurial orientation (EO) of firms is the subject of current research in the fields of management and business. However, analyses on this subject in sport companies are lacking. This study analyzes the relationship among EO, firm size, and business performance of Spanish sports service firms. The study analyzes EO as a multidimensional construct (with proactiveness, innovation, and risk-taking dimensions), and business performance considering self-perception (perceived customer satisfaction, perceived market effectiveness, and perceived financial performance) and financial indicators (ROI). The firm size follows the EU's directive for the classification of micro, small, medium, a…
Predicting future intentions of basketball spectators using SEM and fsQCA
This study analyzes relationships among service quality, perceived value, satisfaction, emotions, and future intentions of spectators of a professional basketball competition using a sample of 429 basketball spectators of a premier division in Spain. The results from structural equation modeling support the hypotheses, except for the effect of emotions and match result on future intentions. The results from fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) with the same data set show that none of the variables are necessary conditions for positive future intentions of spectators. However, seven combinations of these variables are sufficient conditions for explaining positive future intenti…
[MoO2(SCPh2CO2)2]2− and [MoO(SCPh2CO2)2]− anion complexes. A theoretical structure characterization
Abstract Geometry optimization of [MoO 2 (SCH 2 CO 2 ) 2 ] 2− and [MoO(SCH 2 CO 2 ) 2 ] − systems as models of [MoO 2 (SCPh 2 CO 2 ) 2 ] 2− and [MoO(SCPh 2 CO 2 ) 2 ] − anion complexes have been carried out at STO-3G, 3-21G, LANL1MB and LANL2DZ basis set levels. A comparison of the theoretical results and X-ray experimental data has been performed. STO-3G minimal basis set produces the best geometrical agreement, in particular the distances and orientations of the different ligands linked to molybdenum transition metal. A large structural overlap with STO-3G optimized geometry and X-ray data has been found for the [MoO 2 (SCPh 2 CO 2 ) 2 ] 2− and [MoO(SCPh 2 CO 2 ) 2 ] − anion complexes.
Molybdenum(VI)-dioxo complexes with sterically bulky thiocarboxylate ligands. Reactions with aliphatic thiols and electrochemical properties
Abstract Under acid conditions, the reaction of (Bu n 4 N)2[Mo VI O 2 (O 2 CC(S)Ph 2 ) 2 ] with aliphatic thiols yields the monomeric [Mo V O(O 2 CC(S)Ph 2 ) 2 ] − as unique complex product. The experimental pseudo-first order rate constant with respect to the Mo(VI) complex was found to be K =6.1 × 10 −5 s −1 . At neutral pH, however, an unstable Mo(IV) species was formed which was also electrochemically detected in a reversible Mo(V,IV) couple. [Mo V O(O 2 CC(S)Ph 2 ) 2 ] − appears to be obtained by the reaction of [Mo IV O(O 2 CC(S)Ph 2 ) 2 ] 2− with unreacted [Mo VI O 2 (O 2 CC(S)Ph 2 ) 2 ] 2− . Steric features on the ligand (gemdiphenyl groups) explain that the latter reaction does not…
Conceptualización de los medios sociales: oportunidades para la gestión del deporte
Resumen Los medios sociales son un fenómeno que está cambiando la forma en la que las personas nos comunicamos y relacionamos, con muchos millones de usuarios en todo el mundo. En el contexto de la gestión del deporte, los medios sociales están desempeñando actualmente un papel cada vez más relevante en el día a día de clubes, atletas, federaciones, empresas, investigadores, etc. Sin embargo, los estudios realizados hasta el momento sobre medios sociales indican que hay una falta de consenso teórico respecto al término, confundiéndolo en muchas ocasiones con el significado de otros conceptos vinculados a los mismos, algo que puede estar limitando el desarrollo de todo el potencial que tiene…
Poly(amine) biphenyl derivatives as fluorescent sensors for anions and cations
Four new ligands, derived from tetramethylbenzidine and containing additional amino groups, are described. The influence of pH on the fluorescent properties of these ligands has been studied, and the effect of the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings on the fluorescent response has been established. The behaviour of the new ligands, and that of others previously described in both the complexation and sensing of different anions and cations, are also described.
To post or not to post: social media sharing and sporting event performance
Social networks are becoming increasingly important for consumers, especially in the context of sport, where the service experience is highly intense. Few studies have combined subjective event performance variables and social network variables to analyze social network content sharing by sports practitioners. This article investigates the use of social networks in relation to sporting events. An empirical study examined the role of social network variables and sporting event performance variables in social media use. The sample consisted of 410 triathletes (72.2% male) aged between 18 and 66 years (mean 37.03 ± 8.62). Four analyses were performed using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative ana…

ANÁLISE DA PERCEPÇÃO DOS RESIDENTES SOBRE O IMPACTO CULTURAL E DESPORTIVO DE UM GRANDE PRÊMIO DE FÓRMULA 1
The aim of this study is to analyze the resident’s perception about the cultural and sport impact of European Formula 1 Grand Prix. Cluster analysis was performed by combining hierarchical and non-hierarchical methods, which allowed us to differentiate three groups with different perceptions towards sporting event: Unfavorable, Moderate Unfavorable and Moderate Favorable. Most residents believe that this event has no significant impact to cultural and sporting level. Also, differences were found between the three groups of residents in the interest of Formula 1, the support for the event, attendance and the degree of identification.
Conformationally regulated fluorescent sensors. Study of the selectivity in Zn 2+ versus Cd 2+ sensing
Abstract The Zn 2+ and Cd 2+ complexing properties of four ligands containing a 4,4′-substituted biphenyl moiety are described. Ligands 1 and 3 , containing only one 1-aza-18-crown-6 cavity, lead to selective complexation of Cd 2+ versus Zn 2+ . Ligand 4 , with two crown cavities linked to a tetramethylbenzidine unit, is able to form 1:1 complexes with Zn 2+ and Cd 2+ , showing a higher complexing constant with Zn 2+ than with Cd 2+ , probably due to enthalpic factors. Several complementary experiments suggest that the 1:1 complexes formed by ligand 4 involve both crown cavities acting together to give rise to clamp structures. The formation of this type of zinc complex gives rise to red sh…

Polyazapodands Derived from Biphenyl. Study of their Behaviour as Conformationally Regulated Fluorescent Sensors
Eight new polyazapodands containing a 4,4′-substituted biphenyl moiety have been synthesised. Four (7, 8, 9 and 11) are functionalised on positions 4 and 4′ with a nitro group and four (1, 2, 3 and 10) with a dimethylamino substituent. Comparison of the emission behaviour of 1, 2, 3 with that of the reference compounds 10 and tetramthylbenzidine, clearly suggests that a modification in the dihedral angle between the biphenyl rings is an important factor in determining the fluorescent response of the molecule. The fluorescence is pH dependent, due to the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds between protonated aliphatic nitrogens and a carbonyl oxygen, which influences the aforementione…
Influence of Cation Size on the Fluorescent Properties of Bis-coronand Biphenyl-derived Complexes
A new bis-coronand derived from biphenyl has been prepared and its complexing and sensing properties for alkaline, alkaline-earth and transition cations have been studied. Open and clamp complexes are formed depending on the cation size and complex stoichiometry. Both types of geometries can be distinguished due to their different fluorescent behaviour. Zn2+ gives rise to 1:1 and 1:2 complexes with a similar geometry.
Percepción social de la importancia, el impacto y los beneficios esperados de la celebración de los Juegos Mediterráneos de Tarragona en 2017
The purpose of this study was to analyse the evolution between 2009 and 2010 of residents of Tarragona's perceptions of the importance, impact and expected benefits of hosting the 2017 Mediterranean Games in Tarragona. A questionnaire was administered to two random samples of residents of Tarragona one year apart. The results showed high percentages of people who felt that this sporting event is either quite important or very important from an economic, social and sporting perspective and that it also has a high local and regional impact, albeit not so much at a national or international level. The residents felt that hosting the Mediterranean Games in Tarragona would be quite a benefit to …

Bis(crown ethers) derived from biphenyl: extraction and electrochemical properties
Abstract Ligands derived from 4,4′-dinitrobiphenyl containing azacrown cavities in the 2,2′ position have been used in extraction and transport experiments. Control experiments with a system containing only one complexing cavity have demonstrated that the capability of forming a sandwich-type complex in the aforementioned ligand not only increases extraction but also the transport across a liquid membrane. Extraction studies have also shown that the complex present in the membrane has a 1:1 stoichiometry with regard to both ligands. Electrochemical studies have also been carried out. The ligand containing two complexing cavities is capable of giving rise to a 2:1 complex under electrochemic…
