In this article, the relationship between modern mass digital technologies (i.e., mobile applications and big data) and audiences of sports spectators is described and explained by taking a customer-centric approach to grounded theory using a literature review and in-depth qualitative semi-structured interviews ( N = 12) with sports marketing, management, and technology professionals. The qualitative approach permits the gathering of in-depth insights into a problem, generates new concepts through data synthesis and analysis, and captures changing attitudes within the sports industry. Moreover, the qualitative approach to research is not bound by the limitations of quantitative methods and focuses on the primary questions of “how” and “why” digital technology’s mass deployment and diffusion have transformed content consumption in the sports industry. The analysis first systematizes and codes the collected data. Second, all the materials are iteratively read and the key points are outlined. Using the iterative analysis, the theoretical and empirical insights and findings are synthesized in order to achieve the results. Finally, dimensions of the transformation of sports spectators’ consumption are identified and explained. The research implications highlight “how” and “why” modern digital technologies have changed the sports-consuming audience by making it more inclusive in terms of age, gender, demographics, social and health status. These findings are useful for sport managers to better understand their audiences and processes in an ever-changing global society. true 2023 true true true false false GOLD 2026-04-21 true https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.805043 21 0 21 17 2 21 20 15 10 17 17 14 14 17 4 0 21 17 21 17 0 0 0 Folyóiratcikk Journal Article 24 19 Könyvrészlet Chapter in Book 25 1 Könyv Book 23 1 Egyéb konferenciaközlemény Conference paper 31 0 Egyéb konferenciakötet Conference proceedings 32 0 Oltalmi formák Protection forms 26 0 Disszertáció Thesis 28 0 Egyéb Miscellaneous 29 0 Alkotás Achievement 22 0 Kutatási adat Research data 33 0 Folyóiratcikk Journal Article 24 0 0 0 Könyvrészlet Chapter in Book 25 0 0 0 Könyv Book 23 0 0 0 Egyéb konferenciaközlemény Conference paper 31 0 0 0 Egyéb konferenciakötet Conference proceedings 32 0 0 0 Oltalmi formák Protection forms 26 0 0 0 Disszertáció Thesis 28 0 0 0 Egyéb Miscellaneous 29 0 0 0 Alkotás Achievement 22 0 0 0 Kutatási adat Research data 33 0 0 0 2022 0 1 1 1 1 2023 0 7 5 7 5 2024 0 5 4 5 4 2025 0 6 5 6 5 2026 0 2 2 2 2 Q2 A false 10022184 false false false 2023-03-02T12:39:32.994+0000 Sportmenedzsment Tanszék (MTSE / GTI) 1 20 1 3 0 true Language 10002 /api/language/10002 Angol Angol English true 2 true PersonAuthorship 106915935 /api/authorship/106915935 Glebova, Ekaterina ✉ 1 0.333 true false true Glebova Ekaterina true false false AuthorshipType 1 /api/authorshiptype/1 Szerző 0 true 0 true false true PersonAuthorship 106915936 /api/authorship/106915936 Desbordes, Michel 2 0.33333334 false false false Desbordes Michel true false false AuthorshipType 1 /api/authorshiptype/1 Szerző 0 true 0 true false true PersonAuthorship 106915937 /api/authorship/106915937 Geczi, Gabor [Géczi, Gábor István (Sportági kiválasz...), szerző] Sportmenedzsment Tanszék (MTSE / GTI) 3 0.333 false true false Author 10022184 /api/author/10022184 Géczi Gábor István (Sportági kiválasztás, Sporttudomány) Géczi Gábor István true 10022184 true Geczi Gabor true false false AuthorshipType 1 /api/authorshiptype/1 Szerző 0 true 0 true false true PublicationIdentifier 23186736 /api/publicationidentifier/23186736 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.805043 PlainSource 6 /api/publicationsource/6 DOI PublicationSourceType 10001 /api/publicationsourcetype/10001 DOI true true true DOI DOI https://doi.org/@@@ true true 6 true GOLD true IDENTICAL 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.805043 https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.805043 false true PublicationIdentifier 23186738 /api/publicationidentifier/23186738 WoS: 000795834500001 PlainSource 1 /api/publicationsource/1 WoS PublicationSourceType 10003 /api/publicationsourcetype/10003 Indexelő adatbázis false true true WoS WoS https://www.webofscience.com/wos/woscc/full-record/@@@ true true 1 true IDENTICAL 000795834500001 https://www.webofscience.com/wos/woscc/full-record/000795834500001 false true PublicationIdentifier 23186739 /api/publicationidentifier/23186739 Scopus: 85148648793 PlainSource 3 /api/publicationsource/3 Scopus PublicationSourceType 10003 /api/publicationsourcetype/10003 Indexelő adatbázis false true true Scopus Scopus http://www.scopus.com/record/display.url?origin=inward&eid=2-s2.0-@@@ true true 3 true IDENTICAL 85148648793 http://www.scopus.com/record/display.url?origin=inward&eid=2-s2.0-85148648793 false true PublicationIdentifier 23186744 /api/publicationidentifier/23186744 PubMed: 35548535 PlainSource 17 /api/publicationsource/17 PubMed PublicationSourceType 10003 /api/publicationsourcetype/10003 Indexelő adatbázis false true true PubMed PubMed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=@@@&dopt=Abstract true true 17 true IDENTICAL 35548535 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=35548535&dopt=Abstract true true PublicationIdentifier 23186737 /api/publicationidentifier/23186737 Egyéb URL: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.805043/full PlainSource 40 /api/publicationsource/40 Egyéb URL PublicationSourceType 10006 /api/publicationsourcetype/10006 Link true true true Egyéb URL Other URL @@@ true true 40 true IDENTICAL https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.805043/full https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.805043/full false true MtaRating 10486386 /api/mtarating/10486386 II.
