Abstract | This study was designed to examine whether the Olympic Games was a catalyst for changes to Beijing residents' quality of life based on social-economic perspectives and how these changes affected their continuous support for the Games. Residents who lived in Beijing 18 months or longer were invited to participate in this survey research (N = 412) in October 2009. Based on the results, the residents' support for the Games was still high after 2 years of hosting the Games. Factor analyses revealed five social-economic changes: Culture Enrichment, Basic Living, Entertainment Opportunities, Environment, and National Pride. Both improved Entertainment Opportunities and increased National Pride were significant reasons why Beijing residents continued to support the hosting of the Games. No direct relationship was determined between residents' improved quality of life and their continued support for the Games. (As Provided). |
