Areas of particular interest include: (a) demand in sport, (b) stadium financing, and (c) innovation diffusion in professional sports. For example, I am interested in examining attendance demand in the four major US professional sport leagues and in Korean professional baseball. In the area of stadium financing, my focus is two-fold: investigating the economic impact of constructing new stadiums and investigating how the existence of sport franchises contributes to local economic activity. Another interest rests in how innovative features or products in professional sports spread within and between the four major US sport leagues. Additionally, I am interested in the development and application of advanced statistical methods for sport management research; these methods include econometrics, multivariate analysis, structural equation modeling (SEM), hierarchical linear modeling (HLM), and event history analysis.
