The purpose of this study was to clarify any factors affecting the relationship among the time management behavior, self-management and perceived confidence variables of college students depending on their leisure sports participation. For sampling method, convenience sampling technique of non-probability sampling ones was employed to analyze questionnaires collected from a total of 211 respondents. For analytical techniques used, frequency analysis, factor analysis and reliability analysis were carried out, t-test and one-way ANOVA were performed to test any differences in the time management behaviors of subjects depending on their general characteristics, and correlation and multiple regression analyses were conducted to analyze any influential factors of the correlation between the independent variables and dependent variables. The conclusions drawn in this study are summarized as follows:First, the results of testing any differences in time management behaviors depending on general characteristics showed that there was statistically significant difference just in recording habit factor between man and women; arts & physical education of major fields exhibited the highest effects of goal setting factor and, there was statistically significant difference in the status of participation for all the factors except for management priority and recording habit factors. Second, for the effects of time management behaviors of college students participating in leisure sports on their self-management, it was found that goal setting factor of time management behaviors had influence on interpersonal management, a sub-factor of self- management, and management satisfaction factor on physical management, a sub-factor of self-management. And, it was ascertained that goal setting factor had statistically significant effect on mental management, a sub-factor of self-management. Finally, for the effects of time management behaviors of college students participating in leisure sports on their perceived confidence, it was revealed that goal setting and management factors of time management behaviors had statistically significant effect on cognitive confidence, a sub-factor of perceived confidence; recording habit and goal setting factors on social confidence, a sub-factor of perceived confidence; and, management satisfaction factor on overall confidence, a sub-factor of perceived confidence
