Abstract

Descriptions of the psychological benefits of participation in 34 leisure activities were obtained from 1375 respondents who described themselves as knowledgeable participants of at least a year's standing. Cluster analysis revealed nine relatively homogeneous groups of leisure activities. The psychological benefits provided by participation in the activities assigned to each cluster are identified and possible applications of this classification system are discussed.
