    Neural correlates of fanhood: The role of fan identity and team brand strength
    2024-01-08 - Biscaia, Rui; Baumeister, Roy F.; Chan, Hang-Yee; Duarte, Isabel C.; Castelo-Branco, Miguel; Cayolla, Ricardo
    Introduction: We analyzed the importance of fan identity and brand strength on fans’ neural reactions to different team-related stimuli. Methods: A total of 53 fMRI scans with fans of two professional sport teams were conducted. Following up on a previous study we focused on the differences between fandom levels as well as the contrast between two team “brand” strength. Neural responses were compared among individuals based on their levels of fan identity. In sum, group comparisons between relatively high and lower identity and between weak and strong teams were made based on the notion that the latter reflects team brand strength (strong brand and weak brand). Results: Findings indicate that brain activity in emotion regulation, memory, and cognitive control circuits is influenced by the relative level of fan identity. Discussion: Higher-level identified fans showed increased reactivity to positive stimuli and the under-recruitment of their cognitive appraisal circuits, suggesting more vulnerability to marketers’ messages. The strength of the team brand activates different neural mechanisms. Interestingly, the posterior cingulate showed larger recruitment both for weaker brands and lower fan identification, suggesting that visual memory processes are more active in these cases. Neurally processed content depends on the relative brand’s strength, highlighting the importance of brand-focused communications.

    The rooted fan: Exploring suggested improvements to a professional sport team’s sustainability
    2022-06 - Kellison, Timothy; McCullough, Brian P.; Biscaia, Rui; Escadas, Marco; Santos, Teresa; Cayolla, Ricardo
    Sustainability initiatives in sport have the potential to tap large audiences and encourage climate action at events and in consumers’ daily life. However, their effectiveness depends on the acceptance of fans and other supporters (McCullough & Trail, 2021). Fans’ sustainable behaviors during sporting events and in daily life have been subject to researchers’ attention (Casper et al., 2021). Despite the many professional sport teams (PSTs) that have carried out campaigns to increase awareness of environmental problems (Cayolla et al., 2021), the effects of these campaigns among different types of fans are still unclear (Trail & McCullough, 2018). In addition, the suspension of almost all top sport leagues worldwide in the 2020–21 season (Weimar et al., 2021) limited the understanding of fans’ sustainable awareness and behaviors during sport events. Thus, this study aims to gain greater knowledge about the importance of PST sustainability initiatives for fans. [...]

    Pro-environmental benefits of being deeply in love with the club: How brand love foster fans’ sustainable behaviours [abstract]
    2023-09-15 - Escadas, Marco; Biscaia, Rui; Ahuvia, Aaron; Santos, Teresa; Cayolla, Ricardo
    Previous studies have often pointed out how the importance of fans’ emotional connection with sport organizations (Koenigstorfer et al., 2010). However, little is known about how this connection can benefit society as a whole, particularly in terms of pro-environmental behaviours. This research aims to examine the relationship between fans’ perception of clubs’ pro-environmental sustainability initiatives and their pro-environmental behaviours, as well as the moderating role that brand love may exert in this relationship.
