The 5 day workweek has become widespread, and more recently, the 40 hour
workweek is planned to be implemented to the Korean industry by the
government by 2012. It is possible that in the future, we may begin to complain
about too much leisure, rather than too much work. There is a need then,
for types options in leisure activity, brought about by personal choices and
interests. The use of leisure time is a very personal matter. It is deeply related
to types with the quality of life.
Bagozzi (1981) developed a model discerning among attitude, intention and
activity, that attitude affects behavioral intention, and behavioral intention
affects activity. So, as behavioral activity has a deep relationship to behavioral
intention, participation intention according to leisure types leads to
participation in leisure activity. Sports activity and hobby and cultural activity
appear to have high participation and it seems that this is reflected in
behavioral attitude.
Among the types of leisure satisfaction, sport activity satisfaction is
associated with a more positive attitude to leisure than other types. With
respect to background variables for attitude toward leisure according to leisure
satisfaction, the biggest differences in attitude toward leisure were associated
with sports activity.
