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 This study was designed to reveal university students’ motivations for sport. A sample of 934 students (male: 47.4%; female: 52.6%) with different educational levels and fields of study were involved in our research. A revised and developed scale was employed for measuring the students’ motivation. Inferential and descriptive statistics were used to describe the differences in students’ motivations for sport. The results indicated that having fun and experiencing joy, maintaining physical and mental health, and having a fit body were rated most frequently as the students’ motivations

Abstract:

In this study, we examined differences in leisure motivation on the basis of the type of campus recreational activity in which a student was engaged. Specifically, campus recreational activities included aquatics, group fitness, intramural sports, informal sports, and informal fitness. The Leisure Motivation Scale (Beard and Ragheb, 1983) was completed by subjects after they engaged in a campus recreation activity. A 95% confidence level was established a priori, but a Bonferroni adjustment resulted in α ≤ .0015. Results from an analysis of variance indicated differences between activity type.

Abstract:

Most studies on motivation to work concentrate on its environmental and situational antecedents. Individual values are not the point of interest of empirical analyses. The aim of the research described in the paper was to seek possible relationships between work ethic and motivation to work. A hypothesis was put forward that work ethic, in the classical Weberian approach, is connected with motivation to work, from the point of view of Ryan’s and Deci’s self-determination theory. The study on a sample of 405 Polish employees was conducted with use of the Polish version of Multidimensional Work

Abstract:

Value research has great potentials in understanding tourist motivation and behavior. Although it was unlikely that the market for any particular product could be segmented on the basis of value systems alone, marketers could gain a better understanding of consumers by incorporating values into their research with such traditional variables as demographics and preferences. The current study examined the relationship between tourists’ value systems depicted by Kahle’s List of Values (LOV) and tourists’ travel novelty dimensions revealed by the International Tourist Role (ITR) Scale.

Abstract:

The many devastating mental health outcomes associated with chronic loneliness is the motivation behind research into examining personal and demographic characteristics of the lonely. The present study sought to examine the connection of where people live (degree of urbanization) and what people do (leisure activities) with self-report of loneliness in a large sample (N = 8356) of unrelated Dutch adults. Information regarding where people live and what they do in their leisure time was entered into a regression analysis for self-reported loneliness. The overall regression was significant and a
