The Psychology of Fantasy Sports Addiction

from Passion and Pandemonium in Sports Fandom · host Three Peaks Studio

In this episode, we'll explore the psychological factors that contribute to the addictive nature of fantasy sports, particularly in the context of Fantasy Premier League. We'll examine the role of competition, the thrill of winning, and the fear of missing out (FOMO) in driving the compulsive behaviors of fantasy sports enthusiasts. We'll also delve into the potential negative impacts on mental health, relationships, and work-life balance, and discuss strategies for maintaining a healthy balance in one's fantasy sports involvement.
