This study describes factors related to the leisure repertoires of a large population of rural elderly. Age, self-perceived health, leisure attitude, life satisfaction and sex were the most influential factors with regard to the size of subjects' leisure repertoires. Though associations between education, exercise attitude and marital status and leisure repertoire were statistically significant, none accounted for even one percent of the variability in leisure repertoires. While the independent variables explained about 30 percent of the variance in subjects' leisure repertoires, the authors concluded that more research is needed in order to identify other factors associated with the leisure repertoire
