“…Our findings suggest that many social-based gamification elements affect individuals' PA engagement. This finding supports previous studies, which suggested that a sense of belongingness and camaraderie among the group can affect emotional engagement in the activity [64]. Our findings from Altmeyer et al [29] and Seo et al [46] support the previous study which demonstrated that participants who could share their PA performance were much more likely to reach their goal than isolated individual groups [58].…”

Recently, gamified wearable fitness trackers have received greater attention and usage among sport consumers. Although a moderate amount of aerobic physical activity can significantly reduce the risk of many serious illnesses, physical inactivity issues are still prominent. Although wearable fitness trackers have the potential to contribute to physical activity engagement and sustainable health outcomes, there are dwindling engagement and discontinuance issues. Thus, examining its gamification elements and role in physical activity becomes critical. This study examined the gamification elements in wearable fitness trackers and their role in physical activity and sports engagement. A comprehensive literature review yielded 26 articles that empirically measured a variety of gamification features and the effect of the device on physical activity and sports engagement. The study suggests three key gamification themes: goal-based, social-based, and rewards-based gamification that can be a point of interest for future scholars and practitioners. Based on the review, we propose a conceptual framework that embraces motivational affordances and engagement in physical activity and sports.

“…This socialisation motive is evident in both active sport participants and passive sport spectators (Downward & Riordan, 2007; Harvey et al, 2007). More specifically, a number of studies on the motivation of spectators in sport argue that attending sporting events might create beneficial social effects such as: (a) belonging to a broader community (exploring new social relationships while strengthening existing ones, interacting with people who share the same interests as oneself); (b) feeling closer to the community; and (c) developing various interactions with favourite teams, thus leading to social identification with them (De Haan et al, 2014; Doyle et al, 2016; Gau, 2013; Stander & van Zyl, 2016; Trail & James, 2001; Zhou & Kaplanidou, 2018).…”

Background Previous empirical evidence has shown the positive relationship between happiness or subjective well‐being (SWB) and sport participation. Nevertheless, passive sport participation has traditionally been ignored as a correlate with happiness. Methods Based on a sample of 1,632 Spanish people, one ordered probit model and three extended ordered probit models with an ordinal endogenous covariate technique and robust standard errors were applied. Results We find that different forms of passive sport participation—such as frequency of attending sporting events and a set of other forms of passive sports participation such as watching sports on TV, listening to sports programmes, reading sports news, and talking to others about sports—are positively associated with happiness. Conclusions The results indicate that passive sport participation generally appears to have a closer relationship with individual happiness than active sport participation and emphasise the role played by some forms of sport participation as a source of relational goods. This current research extends the field’s understanding of sport participation and happiness, including passive participation, and the relevance of social interactions to account for this association. Finally, the relational aspect of different forms of sport participation offers new implications for the analysis of sport engagement and happiness.

“…This additional facet is regarded as "the capacity to leverage resources, ideas and information from formal institutions beyond the community" (Woolcock, 2001, p.72). It encompasses larger heterogeneity among individuals with diverse ranks of power and is frequently found in peoples' relationships with institutions (Zhou & Kaplanidou, 2017). In terms of disaster management linking social capital is mostly vital as it links disaster-affected individual with needed resources accessible from the government and from other various donor agencies, networks and disaster-related organizations.…”

“…We included it in our analysis based on Taruvinga et al (2017) observation that most of empirical research on linking social capital in the literature adopt qualitative approach (e.g. Lang & Novy, 2014;Ooi et al, 2015;Zhou & Kaplanidou, 2017) hence called for more quantitative studies on linking social capital. Although previous literature on networks have documented that social capital led to several key economic advantages such as success (Butticè et al, 2017), performance (Meiseberg, 2015), well-being (Matsushima & Matsunaga, 2015) and happiness (Bartolini & Sarracino, 2014), the current paper concentrates on the social capital, commitment and resilience of supply chain managers.…”

Studies on supply chain resilience have been well documented, but most of these studies were conducted at organizational level and hence the role of facilitating managers in the supply chain is conspicuously neglected. The purpose of this paper is to explore the effect of tripartite social capital (bonding, bridging and linking) on managers' resilience building and to examine the underlying mechanism through which these relationships exist. Data were collected through selfadministered questionnaire from 452 supply chain managers in Nigeria, a country that has been rocked by series of environmental turbulences. The measurement and structural models were assessed by Partial Lease Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) using SMART-PLS 3 software. The findings suggest that linking social capital influenced manager's resilience, but bonding and bridging did not. Bonding, bridging and linking influence manager's commitment. Additionally, manager's commitment mediated the relationship between tripartite social capital and manager's resilience, Theoretical, practical and methodological implications were also discussed.
