Abstract

Background: Leisure satisfaction is the degree of positive perception and emotions that an individual acquires as a result of participating in leisure time activities, and it has an important function in maintaining and increasing leisure time participation. Some studies on leisure satisfaction address the comparisons between groups. These studies are based on the premise that the measurement tool used to reveal the between-group differences measures the same feature in subgroups.

Objective: In this study, we investigated whether the differences between the groups were due to the measurement tool by examining the psychometric properties of the leisure satisfaction scale.

Methods: The study sample comprised 2344 exercising individuals, including 1228 (52.3%) women and 1116 (47.6%) men. The structural invariance of the leisure satisfaction scale, developed by Beard and Ragheb (Journal of Leisure Research 12:20-33, 1980) and adapted into Turkish by Gökçe and Orhan (Spor Bilimleri Dergisi 22:139-145, 2011), was tested through multiple-group confirmatory factor analysis.

Results: The results indicated that the structural and metric invariance conditions were fulfilled across gender, marital status, and age in all subscales of the leisure satisfaction scale. Scalar invariance was obtained in educational and social satisfaction subscales across gender and in physical satisfaction subscale across marital status.

Conclusion: The study provides evidence for the future comparisons according to these three variables, indicating that the differences obtained will result from the real differences between groups rather than the measurement tool properties.

不同性别、婚姻状况和年龄的休闲满意度量表的测量不变性。
背景:闲暇满意度是指个体在参与闲暇活动后所获得的积极感知和情绪的程度,它对维持和增加闲暇时间的参与具有重要作用。一些关于休闲满意度的研究涉及群体之间的比较。这些研究的前提是,用于揭示组间差异的测量工具能够测量子群体的相同特征:在本研究中,我们通过研究休闲满意度量表的心理测量特性,探讨了组间差异是否由测量工具引起:研究样本包括 2344 名锻炼者,其中女性 1228 人(52.3%),男性 1116 人(47.6%)。休闲满意度量表由 Beard 和 Ragheb(《休闲研究杂志》12:20-33,1980 年)编制,Gökçe 和 Orhan(《Spor Bilimleri Dergisi》22:139-145,2011 年)将其改编为土耳其语:结果表明,休闲满意度量表的所有分量表在不同性别、婚姻状况和年龄下均满足结构和度量不变性条件。不同性别的教育和社交满意度分量表以及不同婚姻状况的身体满意度分量表都具有标度不变性:这项研究为今后根据这三个变量进行比较提供了证据,表明所获得的差异将来自不同群体之间的实际差异,而不是测量工具的特性。
