摘要：

Data from 108 college students in Uganda and 119 students in America showed general similarities in both preferences for and the importance of social contact to 21 leisure activities. Based on the mean ratings, Americans like the activities slightly more and rated the importance of social contact for participation somewhat higher. Correlations between preferences and the importance of social contact suggest that social contact was more important in the leisure preferences of Ugandans. The value of measuring the meaning of leisure as a cultural indicator is discussed. Tentative suggestions are made about the role of social contact in leisure and about differences in leisure between the two countries. © 1978, Sage Publications. All rights reserved.
