Time-dependent structural equation modeling of fans' football fever using activity tracking data during the 2025 DFB Cup final
Jonas Bauer, Christiane Fuchs, Tamara Schamberger
Football fans frequently exhibit pronounced emotional and physiological reactions during high-stakes matches. However, the temporal dynamics of this football fever are rarely model…
Factor- and Composite-Based Structural Equation Modeling -- A New Approach to Incorporate Composites in the Traditional SEM Framework
Tamara Schamberger, Florian Schuberth, Jörg Henseler +1
Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a prevalent approach for studying constructs.Traditionally, these constructs are modeled as reflectively measured latent variables - common fa…
Measuring football fever through wearable technology: A case study on the German cup final
Timo Adam, Jonas Bauer, Christian Deutscher +3
Football is the world's most popular sport, evoking strong physiological and emotional responses among its fans. Yet, the specific dynamics of fan attachment to matches have receiv…
Specifying Composites in Structural Equation Modeling: Traditional, Recent and New Approaches
Jörg Henseler, Xi Yu, Tamara Schamberger +2
Composites, or linear combinations of variables, play an important role in multivariate behavioral research. They appear in the form of indices, inventories, formative constructs,…
Misspecifications in structural equation modeling: The choice of latent variables, causal-formative constructs or composites
Jonas Bauer, Axel Mayer, Christiane Fuchs +1
Empirical research in many social disciplines involves constructs that are not directly observable, such as behaviors. To model them, constructs must be operationalized using their…
