Motives and Points of Attachment: Fans versus Spectators in Intercollegiate Athletics (2003, unknown): “The correlation coefficients of the motives in Fink et al. (2002b) and Funk et al. (2001; 2002) varied considerably; that is, some of the motives were more highly correlated with each other than others.”
eSport vs. Sport: A Comparison of Spectator Motives (2018, unknown): “Common motives include vicarious achievement, drama, excitement, entertainment value, and social opportunities (Funk et al., 2001; Milne & McDonald, 1999; Trail & James, 2001). eSport represents a new area for study in sport consumer behavior (Funk, 2017).”

Testing Models of Motives and Points of Attachment among Spectators in College Football (2009, unknown): “For example, Murrell and Dietz’s (1992) research suggested that identification with the university as an important point of attachment while Funk et al. (2001) suggested that fans’ attachment to the sport and players may also be of importance.”
Fans vs. Spectators: An Analysis of Those who Attend Intercollegiate Football Games (2005, unknown): “However, indirect evidence exists to suggest that there may in fact be relationships between specific motives and points of attachment (Funk et al., 2001; Funk et al., 2002).”
