In 2015, daily fantasy football entered the fantasy sports market as an offshoot of the traditional, season-long form of the game. With quicker payouts and less commitment, the new activity has drawn comparisons to other forms of illegal gambling, and the determination of whether it is a primarily a game of skill or chance has become the center of the comparison. For the most part, legal commentators and society, in general, views traditional, season-long fantasy football as an innocuous, social activity governed equally by both skill and chance. Little evidence exists, however, about participant perception of skill and chance components in daily fantasy football. The current study surveyed 535 daily and traditional-only fantasy football participants in order to understand differences and similarities in the causality orientations of participation (skill or chance). In addition, enjoyment and anxiety were tested for mediating effects on causality orientations and consumption behavior. The results suggest the differences between the activities are not extreme. However, differences were found in which causality orientations influenced enjoyment and which emotion mediated the relationship between perceived skill and consumption.
2015 年，每日梦幻足球作为传统的、赛季制游戏的分支进入了梦幻体育市场。由于更快的支付和更少的承诺，这项新活动被比作其他形式的非法赌博，而它是否主要是一种技巧或机会的游戏已成为比较的中心。在很大程度上，法律评论家和整个社会普遍认为传统的、赛季制的梦幻足球是一种无害的社交活动，同样受到技巧和机会的影响。然而，关于每日梦幻足球参与者对技巧和机会成分的感知，几乎没有证据。目前的研究调查了 535 名每日和传统的梦幻足球参与者，以了解参与（技巧或机会）的因果关系取向的差异和相似之处。此外，还测试了享受和焦虑对因果关系取向和消费行为的中介作用。结果表明，这些活动之间的差异并不极端。然而，在因果关系取向影响享受的方式以及感知技巧与消费之间的关系的中介情绪方面，存在差异。
