Tiivistelmä: | This author, drawing on social exchange theory, examines the changes in enthusiasm 1998-2000 towards Sydney's Olympics among a socially diverse sample of host city residents. Results suggest that for the majority the reaction to Sydney's Olympics intensified from 1998, reaching euphoria in from 1998, reaching euphoria in September 2000. Elation was particularly evident among those living in the city 's western suburbs, those with dependent children, those from non-English backgrouds, or who perceived the event's wider economic benefits as outweighing personal costs. Implications arising from the project are considered for future researchers and organizers of hallmark events. |
