ABSTRACT

There is a dearth of focus on the conditions that cause people to terminate participation in their formerly meaningful leisure activities. What is missing is an understanding of the psychological process that takes place when a leisure activity becomes less meaningful over time, yet participation is not immediately abandoned. What are the reasons people maintain involvement in an activity when it is no longer enjoyable? One explanation is the sunk cost effect. This critical commentary explores the conceptual application of the sunk cost effect to understanding the potential for decreasing commitment levels to a leisure activity, as demonstrated through the framework of enuring involvement.

收益递减:休闲与沉没成本效应

摘要

缺乏对导致人们终止参与他们以前有意义的休闲活动的条件的关注。缺少的是对当休闲活动随着时间的推移变得不那么有意义时发生的心理过程的理解,但参与并没有立即被放弃。当一项活动不再令人愉快时,人们仍然参与其中的原因是什么?一种解释是沉没成本效应。这篇批判性评论探讨了沉没成本效应在理解休闲活动承诺水平降低的可能性方面的概念应用,正如通过确保参与的框架所证明的那样。
