Thickening serious leisure
Gould et al.’s (2008) Serious Leisure Inventory and Measure (SLIM) and its short version were widely used to quantify dimensions of serious leisure for more than a decade. The purpose of this paper is to inform future research directions by reviewing studies employed SLIM to identify diverse SLIM practices and summarise present research findings. A total of 34 journal articles published in English between 2008 and 2019 were reviewed. Results reve…
Structural validity of the Serious Leisure Inventory & Measure (SLIM) in different sets of athletes
The purpose of this study was to reaffirm the structural validity of the Serious Leisure Inventory and Measure (SLIM) measure model developed by Gould et al. and to compare the inventory model’s psychometric performance with the alternative SLIM inventory model developed by Romero et al. Target sampling of Sports Clubs in the Basque Country (Spain) yielded 370 athletes of which 138 had physical disabilities and 232 did not. The results showed tha…
Turning over a new leaf in Colorado
The purpose of this study was to explore the cannabis consumption preferences, leisure interests and leisure motivations of cannabis consumers in the context of legalized recreational marijuana in Colorado, USA. Snowball samples were conducted by the distribution of the questionnaire link using the Facebook accounts of four recreational consumers attending university in Colorado to obtain responses from 382 cannabis consumers (mean 21.9 yoa). The…
Comparisons Between Hispanic and Non-Hispanic White Informal Caregivers
This study focuses on understanding similarities and differences between non-Hispanic White and Hispanic informal caregivers of those with Alzheimer's disease. Comparisons take place between caregivers reporting high levels of burden as indicated by the Zarit Burden Inventory. Data suggest similarities and differences between Hispanic ( n = 17) and non-Hispanic White ( n = 17) caregivers in this study in several areas. Hispanic caregivers indicat…
Measuring Serious Leisure in Chess
The serious leisure inventory and measure (SLIM) was tested with 348 chess players to confirm the factors, assess the effects of method bias, and propose a set of the best-performing items for the 18 factor SLIM. The 54-item SLIM demonstrated acceptable fit and reliability values. The effect of method bias was evidenced in the sample and explained one-third of the variance. Inspection of factor loadings, when controlling for method bias, yielded …
Development of the Serious Leisure Inventory and Measure
In this investigation, the serious leisure inventory and measure (SLIM) was developed from convenience and target samples. The multidimensional framework of serious leisure contains six qualities from which 18 operations were employed. With the use of a q-sort, an expert panel, and confirmatory factor analysis, the 72 item SLIM demonstrated acceptable fit, reliability and equivalence across samples. Mean differences and correlation patterns found…
Negative freedom
Positive and Negative Economic Freedom
Uno de los debates más singulares en la literatura reciente sobre filosofía social se refiere al hecho de que exista un fenómeno tal como la “libertad económica”. Al examinar el concepto anterior en varios autores, uno encuentra, por una parte, que algunos escritores arguyen que existe la experiencia de la libertad cuando una persona obra con los medios económicos que lo posibilitan para obtener los objetos de su elección, o que existe la experie…
