Description :
This study aims to address the past omissions through the examination of the 4th East Asian Games. It especially focuses on the extent to which the event stimulated resident participation in leisure sports and physical activities, so as to draw implications for public health enhancement and the ripple benefits for tourism. The results indicate that respondents who were highly attached to the sport promotion schemes of the event perceived most positive impacts and were more likely to support the city to host similar events in the future. - (IKR)
