using self-determination theory to increase motivation to participate in sporting events
pp. 223-230
Abstract
For the purpose of stimulating the interest in and motivation of exercise participation by the exercise group (e.g., roadrace runner) and the potential exercise group (e.g., spectators) through the use of social technologies, the social exercise platform developed in this study uses the currently popular road race as the central core, utilizing the characteristics of social media and the self-determination theory as the design rationale to design suitable social exercise features. Finally, the system usability is verified with mobile-specific heuristic guidelines; the results show that the newly developed system is in line with usability standards.
