高屏地區退休教師休閒態度與動機之現況研究

The Investigation of Retired Teachers’ Leisure Attitude and Leisure Motivation in Kaohsiung and Pingtung Area

本研究旨在探討退休教師於退休生活休閒態度與動機之概況。以高雄屏東地區年齡介於65歲至75歲之退休教師為問卷調查對象，問卷內容包含休閒態度量表(LAS)、休閒動機量表(LMS)、以及人口學相關因素，經由隨機取樣的方式取得有效收案資料161人，其中男性退休教師有75人且女性有86人、年齡於65歲至70歲者有89人，71歲至75歲者有72人、且每月平均休閒活動花費則分類為新台幣5000元（不含）以下者共62人、5000元（含）以下且10000元（不含）以下者54人、以及10000元（含）以上者共45人。研究結果發現，在整體休閒態度與休閒動機方面之表現，女性確實較男性來的活躍與積極（P值 <.05 )，至於年齡於71歲至75歲者對於休閒態度與休閒動機平均得分的亦不如65歲至70歲者（p值<.05 )，且每月平均休閒活動花費金額愈高者其休閒態度與休閒動機得分愈高（P值<.05)，亦即每月平均休閒活動花費超過10000元者擁有最高的休閒態度與休閒動機之得分且不足5000元者最低。根據研究之結果，本文建議退休教師應注重自身之休閒活動與規劃，特別是男性、年齡於71歲至75歲者且每月休閒活動花費不足5000元者，透過晚年休閒生活之規劃，讓生活的幸福感與滿足感，藉以提升退休晚年的生活品質與社交關係。

The aim of the study was to explain the relationship between retired teachers’ leisure attitude and motivation. The questionnaire including leisure attitude scale, leisure motivation scale, and retired teachers’ demography variables was answered by 161 retired teachers aged between 65-75 years in Kaohsiung and Pingtung Area. The subjects include 161 elderly adults (75males and 86 females; 89 adults aged 65-70 years and 72 adults aged between 71-75 years, and 62 adults’ monthly leisure cost less than NT5,000, 54 adults’ monthly leisure cost between NT5,000 and NT10,000, and 45 adults’ monthly leisure cost over NT10,000). The results showed that (i) female retired teachers had better performance than males in leisure attitude scale and leisure motivation scale (p-value<.05); (ii) retired teachers aged between 65-70 years got better performance than those aged between 71-75 years in leisure attitude scale and leisure motivation scale (p-value<.05), and (iii) retired teachers spending over NT10,000 on leisure per month got the best performance in leisure attitude scale and leisure motivation scale; retired teachers spending less than NT5,000 on leisure per month had the worst performance in both scales (p-value<.05). Obviously, both leisure motivation and leisure attitude were important factors for elderly adults’ life satisfaction. Therefore, we suggested that male elderly adults aged between 71-75 years who spend less than NT5,000 on leisure per month should plan their leisure activities to promote their life satisfaction and quality of life.
