Abstract
ABSTRACTABSTRACTThe need-satisfying characteristics of five commonly selected leisure activities (watching television; attending plays, concerts, and lectures; reading books and magazines; bicycling; and drinking and socializing) were investigated. Forty-two of the forty- five need-satisfiers studied significantly differentiated among the five activities. The need-satisfier dimensions showing the greatest discrimination among the activities were sex, catharsis, independence, understanding, getting along with others, and affiliation.KEYWORDS: Needsreinforcersleisure satisfiersleisure satisfactionneed satisfiersleisure activitiesleisure-relevant needs
