This study commented on Utecht and Aldag's (1989) vacation-discrepancy study. We adapted Beard and Ragheb's 1983 leisure motivation scale to the study of vacations. Using a person's vacation as a frame of reference, prevacation expectations and postvacation satisfactions were studied in a convenience sample of 40 working adults and 146 college students. High (.80 and above) coefficient alphas were observed for the Beard and Ragheb scales of Intellectual, Social, Competence/Mastery, and Stimulus Avoidance as well as two additional motivation scales of Thrill-seeking and Work advantages.

Abstract:
The present study aims to clarify the structure of adolescents' motivations in micro-blog use and develop the corresponding scale. The results show that: (1) Adolescents' motivation in using micro-blog contains 14 items which can be classified into four dimensions, namely Show-Extrication, Convenience-Communication, Information-Sociality, and Leisure-Expression. The scale is of good reliability and validity; (2) Girls' motivation is significantly higher than boys' in the dimensions of Show-Extrication, Convenience-Communication, and Information-Sociality, and in terms of Information-Sociality,

Abstract:
Understanding motivation for exercise can be helpful in improving levels of physical activity. The Physical Activity and Leisure Motivation Scale (PALMS) measures distinct goal-oriented motivations. In this study selected measurement properties of the Dutch version (PALMS-D) are determined. Forward-backward translation was used for cross-cultural adaptation. Construct validity of the PALMS-D was assessed in five subsamples completing the PALMS-D and the Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire (BREQ-3).

Abstract:
Despite its increased recognition among tourism planners and destination governments, a lacuna exists regarding the motivation of diaspora tourists travelling to a destination they regard as an ancestral homeland. Thus, in the current research, we seek to develop and validate a scale that measures the motivations of diaspora tourists. The result of a rigorous seven-stage scale development procedure generates a five-factor structure for diaspora tourists’ motivations. The scale is successfully verified through various reliability and validity tests. This multidimensional scale of diaspora touri

Abstract:
This paper develops a theory of tourist satisfaction which is tested by using a consumerist gap scale derived from the Ragheb and Beard Leisure Motivation Scale. The sample consists of 1127 holiday makers from the East Midlands, UK. The results confirm the four dimensions of the original scale, and are used to develop clusters of holidaymakers. These clusters are found to be determinants of attitudes towards holiday destination attributes, and are independent of socio-demographic variables. Other determinants of holiday maker satisfaction are also examined. Among the conclusions drawn are the
