目的:本研究主要探討中南部運動中心使用者的使用型態、時間運用與休閒涉入,除了比較使用型態在休閒涉入上之差異外,也進一步了解自由時間管理與休閒涉入間之影響關係。方法:研究選取中部朝馬運動中心及南部高應大運動中心為範圍,透過便利取樣,於2017年10月至2018年3月間至運動中心發放問卷,共發放400份問卷,回收有效問卷306份。結果:研究結果顯示,中南部運動中心使用者使用型態,頻率以每周1-2次最多,選擇的運動項目類別以兩項以上為最多,停留運動中心的時間以每次2-3小時為最多。使用頻率越高、有氧舞蹈類、瑜珈類及從事兩項以上運動項目的受試者,在休閒涉入程度上顯著較高,另外,自由時間管理的三個面向能夠解釋休閒涉入51.7%之變異量,其中,以目標設定與技巧及事先規劃最為顯著。結論:本研究證實使用型態在休閒涉入上有顯著差異,且自由時間管理會影響休閒涉入程度,依據研究結果,建議各運動中心可依照中心的設施及人力資源狀況,多開設相關休閒運動課程,藉由專業教練的指導與課程班級群體的凝聚力,增加使用者之涉入程度,後續研究方面,則建議未來能夠針對特殊族群如銀髮族或女性進行研究。
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore use patterns, time management and leisure involvement of public sports center users in central and southern Taiwan. Differences of using patterns on leisure involvement as well as influences of free-time management on leisure involvement were examined. Methods: Data were collected by convenience sampling from users in Chao-Ma civil sports center and sports center in National Kaohsiung University of Applied Sciences via questionnaire survey during October, 2017 to March, 2018. Overall, 306 valid questionnaires were received from 400 distributed. Results: Research results indicate that regarding use patterns, 1-2 times a week, two and more activity items chosen and 2-3 hours per time are the main stream. Moreover, there are differences between use frequency and activity items on leisure involvement. Those who go to sports center more frequently and those who participate in aerobic dance, yoga or several items have higher involvement level. Free-time management is found to contribute on leisure involvement with 51.7% explained variance. Conclusion: The current study confirms that leisure involvement varies by different use patterns, and free-time management contributes to leisure involvement. Based on the research results, it is suggested that more kinds of sports courses could be provided to enhance user's leisure involvement via professional instruction and cohesion. In addition, we also suggest that future researchers can focus on special groups of users such as elderly or females.
