Tourism, Electronic sports, Satisfaction, Psychological well-Being, Quality of lifeAbstract
Electronic sports are a new recreational activity with the potential to generate tourism worldwide. However, it faces various limitations due to the negative public opinion towards the activity and the one-sided perspective in the literature. In order to overcome this situation, the main purpose of our research is to determine the effect of satisfaction of individuals participating in electronic sports on psychological well-being and quality of life. In addition, the moderating role of self-efficacy was also examined. The research was conducted using a questionnaire on university students in Eskişehir province. The data obtained from the research and the hypotheses were measured by confirmatory factor analysis and path analysis tests. According to the results of the study, it was determined that electronic sports satisfaction has a positive effect on individuals' psychological well-being and quality of life. In addition, the results of the study determined the existence of a moderating role of self-efficacy in the relationship between satisfaction in electronic sports and psychological well-being. As a result of the findings, a number of theoretical and practical implications were presented to both practice and academic studies.
