Relationship between leisure activities and satisfaction with a rural fringe locationPounder, Kathryn Elizabeth January 1973 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between residents' leisure activities and their physical environment as an aid to understanding their satisfaction with that environment. This is done with specific reference to Maple Ridge, a fringe area of Vancouver.
Three major questions are considered. How do the characteristics of the residents affect the frequency of their participation in various leisure, activities? To what extent does the environment constrain or facilitate activities which the residents have an interest in pursuing? And, to what extent does participation in activities which are facilitated or constrained by the environment influence residents1 satisfaction with that environment? Ten hypotheses and two assumptions were formulated to examine the relationships suggested by these questions.
The study data consists of 152 responses to a mailed
questionnaire which was distributed to a random sample of
the residents of Maple Ridge. Univariate techniques for
comparing percentage differences, means and correlations,
and the multivariate techniques of factor analysis,
Hotelling's T² statistic and discriminant analysis are used to test the hypotheses.
It is shown that the residents who were most interested and participated most frequently in rural related activities preferred a more rural environment; whereas, there is some indication that those who participated less frequently in such activities preferred a more urban environment. For planners, the results of this study imply that it is valid to examine residential location on the basis of the residents' leisure activities and that the fringe should be recognized as an area offering unique residential opportunities within the metropolitan area. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Community and Regional Planning (SCARP), School of / Graduate

Work: effect on number and duration of activities per dayBull, Christopher Neil January 1967 (has links)
In two studies in the 1930's statistics were generated to show how people spent their time during a twenty-four hour period. These statistics provided information on the number of activities, the duration of such activities, and the people with whom these activities took place. The method of data collection was a diary or log of activities covering a day, which was filled out by the respondent, either during the day, or from his memory of his activities of yesterday. With the lack of any theoretical schema with which to approach the problem of how people spent their time, the present research was completed to put forward a theoretical model, the assumptions
of which could be verified with the data we had collected. The data consisted of the Time-Records of 308 respondents interviewed during the summer of 1965 in an industrial community of twenty thousand.
It was suggested that persons who have in common certain social characteristics will also report a similar number of activities during a day. The characteristics looked at were work shift, work status, family size, and the company size in which people work. It was also proposed that the greater the number of activities reported in a day the less the variance
of the time spent on such activities. We were able, therefore, to test five hypotheses on our data having explained our reservations of the restrictions put on the data by the Time-Record method of data collection.
Our results show that persons who work at an "off-phase" time report a greater number of activities during a day than do persons who work a normal day. The effect of work status on the number of activities does not appear to be significant. With respect to family size no significant difference was found but there was a substantial drop in the number of activities reported by families of three or four persons. We also found that the persons who work for the largest company in the community report a greater number of activities than do persons who do not work for that company. With respect to the variance of the time spent on activities, we found in three different cases that the greater the number of activities reported in a day the less the variance of time spent on those activities.
Our hypotheses derived from our theoretical schema allowed us to make certain predictions concerning the number of activities reported in a day. The findings outlined above were found to refute our predictions in that the significant differences were in the direction opposite to that of our predictions. It was therefore possible, because we had a theoretical schema, to go back to our assumptions and find out
where we had gone wrong. In changing our assumptions we will now have a greater predictive power in our theory. The changes were based on further workings with the data, especially with the information we had on the persons with whom an activity was carried out. It appeared that an assumption was incorrect. The assumption stated that activities which required
a number of persons to be present would be of a shorter duration than those activities not requiring the presence of others. / Arts, Faculty of / Sociology, Department of / Graduate

Adolescent life skill development through active recreation : a case studyNel, Eloise January 2015 (has links)
The study investigated how active recreation opportunities can be utilised to develop
adolescent‟s life skills in a lower socio-economic community. Adolescence is known
as one of the most difficult developmental periods in an individual‟s life and life skill
development is an important contributing factor in assisting an adolescent in this
difficult period. Adolescents in lower socio-economic communities are faced with
limited opportunities for the development of life skills that possibly contribute to the
use of drugs, alcohol, teenage pregnancies and other deviant behaviours. Active
recreation opportunities can provide an avenue by creating an environment in which
life skills can be learned practiced and later be transferred to life situations in which
life skills are required.
The aims of the study were:
To identify how active recreation can contribute to life skill development of
adolescents in lower social communities.
To explore how adolescents in Eersterust perceive current active recreation
opportunities in the community.
To investigate adolescents in the Eersterust community and their perception of
how life skills can be achieved through active recreation.
Grounded in the exploratory qualitative research design with a case study approach
framework, the research methods for the study included focus groups and
participation observation. Participant selection included voluntary high school
adolescents in the Eersterust community between the ages of 14 and 17. It was founded that recreation programs provided in the lower socio – economic
communities do not meet the needs of the adolescents and this leads to non
participation. Adolescents have indicated an understanding of the importance of life
skills and that through participating in active recreation activities they could obtain
these skills.
For future studies the following recommendations are suggested:
The gender division should be considered and therefore it is recommended
that there must be an equal amount of each gender in a group or that the
groups consist of one gender only.
Recreation providers must include adolescents in the design of active
recreation programs as adolescents understand the importance of life skill
development and to insure that the time allocation of the activities
accompanies their schedule.
Adolescents need to become familiar with presenters of activities. It is
therefore recommended that test are done more than once to provide the
adolescents with the opportunity to become familiar with the activity
presenters and this provides the researcher with the opportunity to observe the
results not only on their first meeting but also later on.
Instructions must not be too difficult or take long periods to explain.
Participants tend to get irritated and their mind wonders. It is therefore
recommended that instructions are kept short and sweet
Barriers for example the maintenance of facilities, lack of equipment and
supervision should be taken into account when developing programs. / Dissertation (MA)--University of Pretoria, 2015. / Biokinetics, Sport and Leisure Sciences / MA / Unrestricted

Leisure Lifestyle and Casual Leisure’s Influence on Athletic Identity, Performance and Perception of Hockey in Dropout Amateur Junior Hockey PlayersMacCosham, Bradley January 2015 (has links)
Athletes involved in competitive sport are often required to neglect certain aspects of their life to pursue their sport. One of these aspects is participating in valued activities outside of sport. However, an imbalance between sports, in this case hockey, and other valued activities can lead to living a less than optimal leisure lifestyle with a negative impact on well-being. The purpose of this study is to explore how amateur Junior hockey players leisure lifestyle and casual leisure participation influence athletic identity, performance and perception of hockey. Results indicate that most participants perceived over-identified to hockey, which led to living a less than optimal leisure lifestyle and a negative impact on perception of hockey, identity and performance. However, after dropping out participants perceived their leisure lifestyle as optimal and returned to playing recreational hockey with renewed joy for hockey and a multi-dimensional identity.
