Abstract

This study evaluates the leisure participation of tenants, living in two apartment buildings in relation to sex, maternal language, education, leisure motivation and participation in a senior citizen's club. The data analysed through a general linear model revealed five statistically significant types of leisure activities: (a) parochial, (b) physical, (c) popular, (d) social, and (e) organized groups. The implications of these results for recreation specialists working with the elderly in apartment buildings are discussed.

Résumé

Cette étude évalue la participation au loisir des résident(e)s de deux immeubles à logements multiples à partir des variables sexe, langue maternelle, éducation, motivation face au loisir et adhérence à un club d'âge d'or. Des analyses de la variance par voie de régression multiple font ressortir cinq catégories de participation significatives: (a) paroissiale, (b) physique, (c) populaire, (d) sociale, et (e) groupe organisé. Les diverses implications de ces résultats sont présentées en fonction de la programmation des loisirs dans les habitations à logements multiples.
