Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship among different dimensions of leisure satisfaction,stress and depression of Chinese undergraduates.Methods A stratified sample of 1 000 undergraduates completed the Leisure Satisfaction Questionnaire of College Students (LSQ),Adolescent Self-Rating Life Check List (ASLEC),Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS),and the basic information questionnaire.The data was analyzed by methods of Pearson' s product-moment correlation and structural equation modeling.Results Firstly,total score of LSQ (3.63 ±0.78) had significant effect on depression(β=-0.30,t=-8.81＞2),and it' s indirect effect on depression buffered by stress was also significant(β=-0.05,t 1 =-5.69,t2 =7.54).Secondly,in the three dimensions of LSQ,satisfaction of leisure relaxation(3.80±0.89) had both significant main effect(β=-0.18,t=-3.28) and indirect effect buffered by stress (β=-0.06,t1 =-6.53,t 2 =7.28) on depression,while satisfaction of leisure contact (3.51 ±0.82) had neither main effect nor indirect effect buffered by stress on depression significantly(t ＜2).And satisfaction of leisure transcendence (3.56 ± 0.85) had significant main effect (β =-0.15,t =-2.75) but no indirect effect buffered by stress on depression.Conclusion The impact paths to stress and depression were distinguished between the three dimensions of leisure satisfaction of Chinese undergraduates.
