Abstract
This study aimed to verify the validity and reliability of the scale measuring the psychic income of hosting sport training camps associated with mega sporting events, specifically in the context of the 2019 Rugby World Cup. Data were collected through an online survey, with a total of 188 valid samples (35.6%). Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted with 5 factors and 22 items. The factors were (1) community pride, (2) community attachment, (3) event excitement, (4) infrastructure improvement, and (5) community excitement. A final 18-item-model was used to measure the validity and goodness-of-fit of the scale measuring psychic income. This study demonstrated the scale’s versatility to be translated from measuring psychic income associated with mega sporting events to measuring psychic income in the context of hosting training camps. The indicated scale may help verify the effect of hosting training camps academically and practically.
