Abstract

To understand the natural groups of daily fantasy sports (DFS) players and their associated problematic play, we obtained DFS participation records for 11,130 DFS players from a leading provider. A cluster analysis suggested four player clusters. Cluster 4 included a single highly successful player (i.e., an outlier). Players in Cluster 1 had shorter playing durations than players in Clusters 2 and 3 and picked riskier contests than players in Cluster 3. Players in Cluster 2 picked riskier contests than players in Cluster 3 and had longer playing durations than players in Cluster 1. Players in Cluster 3 experienced greater financial DFS success than others. This suggests that measures of DFS involvement can identify natural DFS player groups with distinct problematic play experiences.
每日幻想体育冒险行为的行为标记
为了了解日常梦幻体育(DFS)玩家的自然群体及其相关的问题玩法,我们从一家领先的供应商那里获得了11,130名DFS玩家的DFS参与记录。聚类分析表明有4个玩家集群。集群4包含一个非常成功的玩家(即异常值)。集群1中的玩家比集群2和集群3中的玩家玩游戏的时间更短,并且比集群3中的玩家选择更冒险的比赛。Cluster 2中的玩家比Cluster 3中的玩家选择了更冒险的比赛,并且他们的游戏持续时间也比Cluster 1中的玩家长。集群3的玩家比其他玩家获得了更大的财务DFS成功。这表明DFS参与的测量可以识别出具有不同问题游戏体验的自然DFS玩家群体。
