dc.description.abstractThis study was based upon a model of leisure constraints, originally proposed by Crawford and Godbey (1987) and elaborated on by Crawford, Jackson, and Godbey (1991), and more recently by Raymore, Godbey, and Crawford (1994). The study sought to determine whether a relationship existed between leisure constraints and leisure programmers' participation. The sample consisted of 27 leisure programmers in the public sector from the four-core municipalities (Victona, Saanich, Oak Bay, and Esquimalt) of Victoria, British Columbia. An instrument adapted from Bradshaw and Jackson (1979) was used to measure the personal participation of leisure programmers in their programs. Leisure constraints were found to be negatively related to leisure programmers' participation. The results of the study suggest that the Raymore et al (1994) model is useful in assessing the constraints on leisure for leisure programmers in their work setting. Methodological and practical implications of the study are discussed, and directions for subsequent research are proposed.
