Thesis (Ph.D.)--Indiana University, 2007.

The relationships between personality, leisure satisfaction, and life satisfaction were investigated in 420 undergraduate students in a large Midwestern university. An anonymous paper and pencil questionnaire was administered in classes during the summer of 2005. The survey instrument consisted of the NEO-FFI (Costa & McCrae, 1992) to measure personality traits, the Satisfaction With Life Scale (Diener, Emmons, Larsen & Griffin, 1985), a modified version of the Amount of Perceived Leisure Subscale (Neulinger & Breit, 1969; revised 1971), the Leisure Satisfaction Scale (Beard & Ragheb, 1980), and 11 demographical questions.

520 $a The relationships between personality, leisure satisfaction, and life satisfaction were investigated in 420 undergraduate students in a large Midwestern university. An anonymous paper and pencil questionnaire was administered in classes during the summer of 2005. The survey instrument consisted of the NEO-FFI (Costa & McCrae, 1992) to measure personality traits, the Satisfaction With Life Scale (Diener, Emmons, Larsen & Griffin, 1985), a modified version of the Amount of Perceived Leisure Subscale (Neulinger & Breit, 1969; revised 1971), the Leisure Satisfaction Scale (Beard & Ragheb, 1980), and 11 demographical questions.
520 $a Based on zero-order correlations, leisure satisfaction was associated with Extraversion (r = .52), Conscientiousness ( r = .38), Agreeableness (r = .34), Openness ( r = .31), and low Neuroticism (r = -.31); however, stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that Extraversion (beta = .37), Openness (beta = .25), Conscientiousness (beta = .23), and low Neuroticism (beta = -.12) together are the best predictors of leisure satisfaction ( R = .63). The results support the pervasive influence of personality characteristics on leisure satisfaction (accounting for 39% of its variance) and thus, the existence of a leisure personality construct.
520 $a Regarding life satisfaction, previous findings concerning the contribution of Extraversion (r = .49), low Neuroticism (r = -.44), Agreeableness (r = .29), and Conscientiousness ( r = .38) to life satisfaction were replicated. Interestingly, Openness to experience was significantly related to leisure satisfaction, but not to life satisfaction in this inquiry.
520 $a This study provides evidence that most of the association between leisure satisfaction and life satisfaction can be due to personality. Although there is a moderately strong relationship between leisure and life satisfaction (r = .44), when personality was controlled in regression analysis, leisure satisfaction explained only a small incremental variance in life satisfaction (R2 change = .02; R2 = .37). Thus, it appears that personality might have been a confounding variable in previous studies supporting strong correlations between leisure satisfaction and life satisfaction. However, this finding does not limit the relatedness of leisure satisfaction to well-being; rather, it might be that leisure satisfaction is more associated with psychological well-being than subjective well-being (e.g., life satisfaction).
