Abstract

The purpose of this study was to verify a Structural Equation Model that constructed the causations among thestructural leisure constraints, interpersonal leisure constraints, intrapersonal leisure constraints, leisure motivation,leisure activity participation, leisure satisfaction and the quality of life from the ecological perspective. Therespondents were 301 elderly people residing in 4 free institutionalized elderly homes in Seoul. The data wereanalyzed by confirmatory factor analysis and covariance structure analysis using LISREL 8.0 ver.The major results are summarized as follows: 1) Statistically, a goodness of fit is good of structural equation modelpresented in the study. 2) The structural leisure constraints and the interpersonal leisure constraints are some typesof leisure environment of the aged in public homes from the ecological perspective. Such constraints would inevitablylead to a direct effect on individual leisure life and leisure motivation. 3) The important valuable factor which affectedthe leisure satisfaction and the quality of life in the elderly was the leisure motivation.
