AbstractUtilizing Turner’s (Citation1974a) theoretical framework of liminoidity, this research analyzes leisure experiences by Harry Potter fans visiting the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida. Liminoid experiences are broadly characterized by leisure, individualization, continuously reoccurring nature, and do not require society-wide participation or personal transformation (Turner, Citation1974a). This phenomenological research employed qualitative methods to explore the structure of liminoidity in leisure experiences and extend Turner’s concept of spontaneous communitas and play. The author puts forth the Liminoid Leisure Experience Model to describe the processes of liminoid leisure experiences. Findings are transferrable and generalizable across fan communities.Keywords: CommunitasfandomHarry Potterliminaltourism Disclosure statementThe author declares that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.

AbstractAgeism is entrenched in the contemporary Western society, rendering later-life sexuality negligible and limiting intergenerational understanding of lifespan sexual well-being. This cross-sectional study (1) measured young adults’ extent of knowledge and attitudes toward later-life sexuality, general sexual attitudes, and sex as leisure views and (2) tested whether knowledge about elderly sexuality, gender, sexual attitudes, and sex as leisure views explain/predict attitudes toward later-life sexuality. Data were collected using survey methodology (N = 270; 55.2% women) and analyzed with descriptive statistics and multiple regression. Young adults reported medium knowledge levels and relatively tolerant/permissive attitudes toward later-life sexuality. They also tended to have permissive general sexual attitudes and to view sex as leisure. In turn, young adults’ general sexual attitudes and viewing sex as leisure predicted their acceptance of later-live sexuality, while gender and knowledge levels did not. These findings address meaningful knowledge gaps and contribute to sexual health education combating ageism.Keywords: Ageismlater-life sexualitysex as leisuresexual attitudesyoung adults Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.

AbstractThe Anthropocene offers an opportunity to (re)imagine and enact futures that care for the geological and ecological times and temporal rhythms of kin, and to expand beyond human politics of time. This article engages posthumanism to disrupt anthropocentrism and attune to times as embedded within relations of being together-with nonhumans. In this methodological article, I consider what it might look like to be together-in-time(s) with nonhuman kin and offer some possible practices for attuning to nonhuman times and the co-created times of leisure. From these temporal attunements emerge creative and affectively disruptive (re)presentations of being together-in-times with rocks, chipmunks, a shaggy mane mushroom, and a log in two protected areas in Ontario, Canada. (Re)imagining leisure in the Anthropocene as an ethic of togetherness, this article seeks to care for affective, relational, and embodied practices of being-with, knowing-with, and writing-with kin and kin times, and for flourishing more-than-human futures.Keywords: Nature-based leisurenonhuman kinposthumanismtime AcknowledgmentsI would like to thank the special issue editors Bryan S.

摘要人类世提供了一个(重新)想象和制定未来的机会,它关注地质和生态时代以及亲属的时间节奏,并扩展到人类的时间政治之外。这篇文章采用后人文主义来破坏人类中心主义,并作为嵌入与非人类在一起的关系而调谐到时代。在这篇方法论文章中,我考虑了与非人类亲属在一起的时间可能是什么样子,并提供了一些可能的实践来协调非人类时代和共同创造的休闲时代。在加拿大安大略省的两个保护区中,从这些时间调谐中出现了与岩石、花栗鼠、毛茸茸的蘑菇和原木在一起的创造性和有效的破坏性(重新)呈现。在人类世(重新)想象休闲伦理的归属感,本文试图照顾情感、关系、与具体实践,明确知道,用亲属和亲属,为繁荣more-than-human期货。我要感谢特刊编辑Bryan S. R. Grimwood、Emily Höckert和Outi Rantala以及匿名审稿人的慷慨和关心,他们分享了评论和反馈。我还想感谢寂静湖和苏必利尔湖省立公园里的许多人类和非人类,虽然没有在这里出现,但他们与岩石、花栗鼠、毛茸茸的蘑菇和圆木的接触,以及他们各自的时间,都是可能的。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。图1所示。一个带有石头的小装饰品(来源:Chris E.

AbstractThis paper explores how death is represented in the popular Netflix television series Squid Game. While death is an overarching theme in this series, there is one feature of its storytelling that sets it apart from other fictional deadly games’ televisual or cinematic franchises. Indeed, Squid Game depicts players implicitly consenting to die if they lose the game. This narrative is centered on the deep vulnerabilities that come from social inequalities and create conditions in which death can be staged as merchandise to be sold or bought for entertainment purposes. This paper describes and analyzes how the implicit consent to death was portrayed as the ultimate outcome of social inequalities, as a commodity, and as an object of leisure. We will conclude the paper by discussing the implications of exposure to this discourse during leisure.Keywords: deathimplicit consentleisuresocial inequalitiestelevision Disclosure statementThe authors report there are no competing interests to declare.Notes1 For instance, the first game is “Red Light, Green Light”. The goal is to get from the starting line of the playing area to the other (i.e., behind the giant doll) in a limited time frame. However, when the doll turns his head, the players need to stop moving.2 Manga are comic or graphic novels, while anime are hand-drawn or computer-generated animation films or television series both originating from Japan and constituting an important part of Japan’s content in the media production industry.3 Ddakji is a Korean game where each player has a piece of paper folded into a square (i.e., a card) and the goal is to use their card to flip the opponent’s one.4 See the following websites: (https://squid-game.io/; https://www.crazygames.fr/jeu/squid-game-online; https://www.play-games.com/play-squid-game-online-for-free.html

Insufficient physical activity is an increasing threat to personal well-being and public health. While significant research has focused on the factors that encourage or restrict physical activity, the impact of family constellations on physical activity remains under-researched despite its evident impact on leisure-time physical activity (LTPA). This study aims to analyze how being embedded in a family constellation reflects on LTPA. Our data are drawn from interviews with 89 working adults living in a household with a spouse and/or children. The results indicate that individuals have both escapist and integrative motivations for LTPA, which reflect particular family constellations. This finding leads to the following LTPA dimensions: solitary escapism, co-escapism, integrative escapism, and integration. Furthermore, the mechanism is bidirectional: family affects LTPA, and LTPA reflects on personal and family well-being. Public and private actors can utilize these findings when compiling policies and recommendations and developing services intended to increase LTPA.

This paper demonstrates how liminality provides a core framework for understanding the processes and practices through which Lego® Serious Play® can positively influence the student experience and wellbeing of children and young people (CYP). The study adopts a creative multi-sensory methodology whereby the focus is upon the Lego® and not the child. Using a play-based learning approach within an educational setting, data was collected in a UK junior school, involving sixty-four children, ranging from seven to eleven years of age. An initial group session was repeated two weeks later to monitor and observe changes. The results highlight that the Lego® Serious Play® methodology uses liminality to further the debate about the use of play as a leisure-based activity in educational settings. This study contributes to knowledge by utilizing Lego® Serious Play® (LSP) through a playful lens as a creative methodology and highlights the unique interaction between leisure, liminality and Lego®.

AbstractIt has been noted that crime and enforcement are likely a defining part of an evolving leisure experience. The aims of this manuscript were to call for research to focus on this phenomenon of the shooting and killing of people, particularly Black citizenry, by law enforcement. State sanctioned violence has been consistently wrought in leisure spaces and settings since those 2014–2015 deaths that were noted previously in the Leisure Sciences article, “The Case of the 12-year-old Boy: Or, the Silence of and Relevance to Leisure Research”. An understanding of policing, not police officers, and an understanding of society, not social behavior are the needs in the research of a legitimate phenomenon that occurs within the space, time, and activities of leisure, sport, and tourism.Keywords: Abolitioncommunity controldefundpolicepolicingstate-sanctioned violence Ethics statementThis manuscript is a presentation of a comprehensive theories and thus falls outside of the parameters of a research study and study involving humans.
