This research is part of a larger effort that integrates advances from personality research and playfulness research to develop a valid and reliable measurement of adult playfulness. We proposed a latent network trait conceptualization that focuses on the interconnected cognitive qualities central to playfulness, strictly distinguished from their state manifestations and personality correlates. A sequential multistudy design involving focus group…
Blowing Open the Serious Leisure-Casual Leisure Dichotomy
Serious leisure and casual leisure have served as two contrasting concepts for describing leisure experiences. The purpose of this article is to reevaluate the traditional dichotomy of serious leisure-casual leisure in light of accumulated empirical evidence. Greater theoretical attention to the interconnectedness and continuity between the two concepts is advocated. Findings from an on-line survey with a group of women engaged in informal social…
Assessing Hierarchical Leisure Constraints Theory after Two Decades
This article assesses the status of hierarchical leisure constraints theory (Crawford & Godbey, 1987; Crawford, Jackson, & Godbey, 1991) regarding many issues. Such issues include clarification and elaboration of some aspects of the original model, a review of studies which have used or examined the model and the extent to which they are confirmatory, critiques of the original model by various authors, and avenues for further research. Conclusion…

As part of a larger effort to test the usefulness of the WVO construct across cultures, we conducted pilot testing of the construct in China. A conceptual and methodological framework developed by the project's international research team was used to collect and analyze data. Specific modifications were made for…
