Limited research has examined psychological involvement change using a longitudinal design. This study explored stability and change in the three facets of psychological involvement—pleasure, centrality, and sign—that occurred over a 2-year period and examined key behavioral correlates of the observed change. Data were collected three times through online surveys from participants (N = 482) of an annual 10-mile running event in the United States. Latent growth modeling analyses revealed that, on average, the levels of pleasure, centrality, and sign in running slightly decreased over time. Growth mixture modeling analyses offer evidence that different patterns of change exist within each facet of psychological involvement. The findings further indicate that changes in the number of events participated in each year are the most important behavioral correlates of psychological involvement change. The results provide sport managers with implications for promoting long-term engagement with the activity through...

心理参与的行为相关性：一项为期两年的研究

有限的研究使用纵向设计研究了心理参与的变化。这项研究探讨了在两年内发生的心理参与的三个方面（愉悦，集中性和体征）的稳定性和变化，并研究了观察到的变化的关键行为相关性。通过在线调查从美国（N = 482）的参与者进行了三次数据调查，该参与者是美国年度10英里的跑步项目。潜在增长模型分析表明，平均而言，随着时间的流逝，愉悦感，中心性和跑步的水平会略有下降。生长混合物建模分析提供了证据，表明心理参与的每个方面都存在不同的变化模式。研究结果进一步表明，每年参与的事件数量的变化是心理参与变化的最重要的行为相关因素。结果为体育经理提供了通过以下途径促进长期参与此项活动的意义：
