| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄應用科技大學 === 觀光與餐旅管理系 === 98 === The faculty and administrative staffs in the universities and colleges of Taiwan have huge stress and become displeased due to intense competition and long time work, which also make them exhausted. While facing stress, the staffs need to find effective decompression methods. One of the decompression methods is to take leisure activities. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship among the leisure participation, leisure constraints, and lifestyles of the faculty and administrative staffs in the universities of Taiwan. By questionnaires, we collect the data from the staffs of the technological universities in the south of Taiwan. We provide a total of 300 questionnaires, receive 285 returned questionnaires, and eliminate 15 invalid ones. Overall, a total of 270 valid questionnaires are obtained, making the returning ratio to be 90%. These obtained data are analyzed using the software of SPSS for Windows 14.0. Moreover, we consider the analysis methods including Descriptive Statistics, t-test, One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Scheffe Multiple Comparison, and Regression Analysis. The results of this study can be concluded as follows.
(1) In terms of leisure participation, the faculty staffs prefer the knowledge-based activities while the administrative staffs prefer the entertainment-based ones.
(2) In terms of leisure constraints, since the averages regarding “individual inherent constraint” and “interpersonal relationship constraint” of the faculty staffs are much larger than those of the administrative staffs, we can infer that the faculty staffs may have the uncomplicated interpersonal relationships.
(3) In terms of lifestyles, both of the faculty and administrative staffs prefer “family-oriented life,” which means they concern family lives. Since the faculty staffs prefer the knowledge-based activities as shown in the results, which may cause their insufficient exercises, the faculty staffs are encouraged to do more sport activities.
