• Comparing Trail Runners and Mountain Bikers: Motivation, Involvement, Portfolios, and Event-Tourist Careers (2014, background): “Funk, Toohey, and Bruun (2007) concluded from a study of marathon runners that a three-dimensional view of sport-event motivation was supported, consisting of prior sport motives, destination image, and travel motives.”
• Sport Tourists’ Involvement with a Destination (2013, background): “Attraction is a product of the destination providing the opportunity to satisfy needs and receive benefits for an individual based on hedonic and dispositional needs, self-efficacy, and the negotiation of perceived barriers (Funk et al., 2007).”
• Factors influencing destination image and visit intention among young women travellers: role of travel motivation, perceived risks, and travel constraints (2017, background): “Funk, Toohey, and Bruun (2007) found that destination image does not differ by gender, whereas Beerli and Martin (2004) found that women travellers perceive affective image as a more favourable indicator in travel behaviour.”
• The Antecedents and Outcomes of Attachment and Sponsor Image Within Charity Sport Events (2010, background): “These dimensions represent core factors that can drive event participation in general and are relevant to the sport event context in particular (Funk et al., 2007).”
• Predicting Behavioral Intentions of Active Event Sport Tourists: The Case of a Small-scale Recurring Sports Event (2010, background): “Funk et al. (2007) also found that a positive destination image was associated with a higher likelihood that a runner would take part in an international marathon.”
