“…For satisfaction, the authors modified and complemented questions used in Beard and Ragheb's (1980) study to fit the nature of this study and developed a total of six questions: emotional satisfaction (two questions) and performance satisfaction (four questions). Exercise adherence intention consisted of three questions regarding possibility of exercise adherence", "likeliness to continue exercising" and "will to adhere to exercise" based on the questions used in Yoo and Ryu's (2010) study.…”

Purpose This paper aims to identify the relationship between participation motivation, satisfaction and exercise adherence intention of golf range users on the basis of self-determination theory. Design/methodology/approach For this purpose, the authors proposed research questions and a conceptual research model as well. Then, the authors surveyed users of golf ranges located in Seoul Metropolitan City and Gyeonggi-do province. Findings By applying convenience sampling, the authors received a total of 313 questionnaires. Results were as follows. First, among the participation motivation sub-factors, health-oriented motivation, achievement motivation, pleasure-oriented motivation and self-displayed motivation had a significant effect on emotional satisfaction, while achievement motivation and pleasure-orientation motivation had a significant effect on performance satisfaction. Second, the following participation motivation factors had a significant effect on exercise adherence intention: health-orientation motivation, achievement motivation and pleasure-orientation motivation. Third, among the satisfaction factors, emotional satisfaction and performance satisfaction both had a significant effect on exercise adherence intention. Originality/value This is one of the first papers to examine the relationships that exist between golf range users’ participation motivation, satisfaction and exercise adherence intention.

“…Clinically, having standardized assessments available in other languages will assist occupational therapists in providing culturally sensitive assessments to clients whose first language may not be English. The purpose of this study was to validate a French version of the Leisure Satisfaction Scale (LSS) (Beard and Ragheb, 1980). For both the English and French instruments, detailed analysis looking at the intralanguage, interlanguage and temporal interlanguage cross-correlations was done.…”

“…The median intercorrelation coefficient was 0.46, indicating some overlap among the subscales. However, the difference between the intercorrelation coefficients and the reliabilities of the subscales indicates that there is a substantial amount of unique variance in each (Beard and Ragheb, 1980).…”

“…The Leisure Satisfaction Scale (LSS) (Appendix 1), developed by Beard and Ragheb (1980), is a self-administered tool that measures the role of leisure in satisfying individual needs. In creating this tool, the authors were interested in discovering how the personal satisfaction gained from leisure choices relates to personal and social adjustment, mental health and overall happiness.…”

This paper analyses data from 471 domestic and international visitors to Katherine, Northern Territory as to their levels of interest in Aboriginal tourism products. It finds that although 40% of visitors do have an interest in Aboriginal culture, for the great majority such an interest is part of a wider interest in the Northern Territory as a whole. There is little evidence that tourists might be described as ‘amateur anthropologists’—rather their interest is related to other aspects of the Territory, such as its landscape, flora and fauna, and opportunities for outback adventure. Additionally, it is argued that evidence emerges of some tourists re‐evaluating natural settings from an Aboriginal perspective. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
