[[alternative]]The Construction of Leisure Participation Scale for College Students in Taiwan

[[abstract]]鑑於國內大學生甫脫離聯考升學壓力下進入各大專院校就讀，面對自由時間以及多樣化的休閒活動型態，卻往往不知道如何有效地運用空餘時間，正確且自主地判斷去選擇適合自己的休閒活動。本研究旨在探討臺灣北部地區之大學院校一年級的學生，探討其休閒參與之各構面內容，瞭解目前北部地區之大學生休閒參與，並進一步加以衡量其強度和效益，故建置一份以臺灣大學生為主的「休閒參與量表」。本研究首先蒐集國內外相關文獻，擬定量表問卷初稿進行專家效度評鑑，設定以宜蘭地區的一間技術學院一年級全體大學生做第一次前測，另外以臺北市及新北市共三間大專院校做為第二次前測。經前測量表之信效度檢驗無誤後始進行正式施測，抽取北部地區共11間大專院校日間部一年級班級進行整班學生的正式量表填答（高教體系之一般綜合大學共五間及技職體系之科技大學共六間），共獲得有效問卷共491份，使用敘述性統計、信效度考驗，並運用驗證性因素分析比較模式之適配度，亦進行收斂效度與區別效度之驗證。結果顯示在整體的建構信度及個別潛在依變項的信度，都顯示出具有相當良好結果。此量表是具有建構效度與建構信度且適用於目前臺灣大學新生的休閒參與測量，可供相關單位作為規劃大學生休閒活動及資源時之相關參考及運用。[[abstract]]Because of the increase of free time and more diversified types of leisure activies, the issue for college students to choose suitable leisure activity becomes very important. From the literature we find five major categories of leisure activies and then construct Leisure Participation Scale for college students. Through Structural Equation Modeling（SEM）Analysis : Second-order confirmatory factor model, we establish a set of scale of leisure participation with suitable reliability and validity. After two pre-test inspections then we start the sampling process. Finally, a total of 491 students from 11 universities located in Northern Taiwan were collected for this test. The results revealed that the reliabilities of the scale and the five latent dependent variables were satisfactory. Therefore, the scale contains construct validity and reliability and can be applied in the measurement of leisure participation for college fresh students. We suggest that colleges and the realted units should take advantage of this feature to provide attractive leisure activities, and thus to encourage students to actively participate in various suitable leisure activities
