ABSTRACT
Objective:
The article has two aims. Firstly, it examined the relationships between leisure time activities
and personality variables. Secondly, it was to develop a questionnaire for measuring leisure
time activity. A total of 806 adults took part in two studies. As a result of exploratory and
confirmatory analyses conducted, a 16-item was developed.
Results:
Four subscales were distinguished in it: Socializing with Friends, Using the Internet, Leisure
Time Management, and Winding Down. The reliability of the scale is acceptable, varying from
.70 to .87 for different samples. There were significant correlations between leisure time and
personality variables. The Socializing with Friends scale correlates positively with stimulation
seeking, activity, endurance, extraversion, hedonistic present, and self-liking. Using the
Internet correlates positively with stimulation seeking, activity, extraversion, hedonistic
present, and positive past, and negatively with openness to experience and action-oriented
decision-making. Leisure Time Management correlates positively with stimulation seeking,
self-discipline, and hedonistic present. The Winding Down subscale correlates positively with
self-discipline, future, and positive past.
Conclusions:
The outcome of the study is the Leisure Time Activity Questionnaire (the LTAQ). The presented
method is a reliable measure with confirmed theoretical validity.
