Popis: | Stress is an inevitable part of university life. Understanding students' stress-coping behaviour is a topic of relevance to universities aiming to enhance student satisfaction with campus life and well-being in general. This research examined the dynamic relationships between student stress, anticipated leisure benefits, leisure participation and gender. The results have confirmed that anticipated leisure benefits are significantly related to student participation in leisure activities. While there seems to be no direct relationship between student stress and their leisure participation, perceived leisure benefits were shown to be a strong moderator in such a relationship. In this study, gender played a role in students' leisure-coping strategies. |
