Abstract

Students often face decisions between academic and leisure activities, especially when they have academic activities that need to be completed but are disturbed by leisure activities at the same time. The relative strength of study and leisure values has been theorized to be related to students' decisions in study-leisure conflicts, yet previous studies have focused mainly on the role of the absolute strength of study or leisure values. This study aims to test the relationship between the relative strength of study and leisure values and early adolescent students' decisions in study-leisure conflicts and systematically consider multiple value components defined in expectancy-value theory. Data were collected from 2564 Chinese seventh graders and analysed by latent difference score modelling. The results showed that students with higher study interest value, higher study attainment value, higher study utility value, or lower study cost relative to leisure value components tended to choose academic activities in study-leisure conflicts. Moreover, when considering the four value components simultaneously, the relative strength of study and leisure attainment values had the strongest effect on decisions in study-leisure conflicts. These findings provide a new perspective and new evidence for the relationship between students' study and leisure values and decisions in study-leisure conflicts.

学习与休闲价值观在学生学习与休闲冲突决策中的作用：潜在差异分数模型

学生经常面临学业与休闲活动之间的抉择，尤其是当他们有学业活动需要完成，但同时又受到休闲活动的干扰时。有理论认为，学习和休闲价值观的相对强度与学生在学习和休闲冲突中的决策有关，但以往的研究主要关注学习或休闲价值观绝对强度的作用。本研究旨在检验学习和休闲价值观的相对强度与青少年学生在学习-休闲冲突中的决策之间的关系，并系统地考虑期望-价值观理论所定义的多种价值观成分。研究收集了 2564 名中国七年级学生的数据，并通过潜在差异分值模型进行了分析。结果表明，在学习与休闲冲突中，学习兴趣价值、学习成绩价值、学习效用价值或学习成本相对休闲价值成分较低的学生倾向于选择学术活动。此外，当同时考虑四个价值要素时，学习和休闲成就价值的相对强度对学习-休闲冲突中的决策影响最大。这些发现为学生的学习和休闲价值与学习休闲冲突中的决策之间的关系提供了新的视角和新的证据。
