亚洲、北美洲奥运项目布局的比较研究

The Comparative Study of Over-all Arrangement of the Olympic Events Between Asia and North America

文章运用因子分析的统计方法,将25-28届夏季奥运会期间各区域各奥运项目群体分为两个因子.结果表明,北美洲和亚洲有着不同的项目布局,首先,稳定因子和非稳定因子所包括的项目群体各不相同,亚洲稳定因子的组成以女子项目为主.其次,亚洲稳定因子体现出蓬勃发展的竞技优势,而北美洲该因子竞技实力日益流失;亚洲非稳定因子竞技实力虽然表现出较大的不稳定性,使其仍然保持着较快的发展速度,而北美洲该因子竞技实力日益没落.另外,随着时间的变化,各区域中稳定因子和非稳定因子有着不同的变化趋势,其稳定性和非稳定性也存在很大的差别.

By means of the statistical method and factor analysis,the paper divides the Olympic event colonies of different areas from the 25th to the 28th Summer Olympic Games into two factors,which shows that there exists difference in the overall arrangement of the Games between North America and Asia.First,the stable and unstable factors contain different event colonies,for instance,the sta-ble factor in Asia refers to woman events.Second,the competitive advantage of the stable factor in Asia is flourishing while that in North America is fading;the competitive advantage of the unstable factor in Asia is still developing rapidly though it is of much unstability,while that in North America is gradually declining.Besides,the stable factor and the unstable factor of various areas tend to change with time and the stability and unstablility are also of great difference.
