With regards to the gender differences, male students are greater than female students. There are existed significant differences within the grades of secondary school students’ extrinsic and intrinsic leisure motivations. With regards to grade differences, senior two students are greater than junior three students in extrinsic leisure motivation, but senior three students are greater than junior one students in intrinsic leisure motivation.

With regard to the gender differences, male students participate significantly more often than female students in physical leisure activities; female students participate significantly more often than male students in intellectual and artistic leisure activities. With regard to the grade differences, lower graders participate significantly more often than upper graders in leisure activities. With regard to the parents’ socioeconomic status, parents with higher socioeconomic status participate significantly more often than parents with lower socioeconomic status in leisure activities.
