AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic has intensified the complexity of national park visitors’ perceived crowding and visual attention. Decision support frameworks are needed to monitor, quantify, and forecast visitors’ visual attention, perceived risks, and perceived crowding by different social density conditions before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study forecasts temporal patterns of visitors’ perceived crowding by varying perceived risk levels and visual attention in a national park. A mixed-methodology was developed using longitudinal monitoring, visitor surveys (n = 444), and eye-tracking experiments (n = 42). Results suggest that visitors’ perceived crowding and visual attention fluctuate dramatically by varying perceived risk levels. Moreover, Kernel Density analysis and mediation analysis indicate that perceived crowding is associated with inadequate visual attention to natural landscapes, and visual attention is a mediator between perceived risk and perceived crowding. Results developed a real-time analytical approach for visual attention and perceived crowding guided by the dual-process theory and attention restoration theory.Keywords: Eye-trackingperceived crowdingperceived risksocial carrying capacitysocial densityvisual attention Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis study is supported by the Institute of Social Science Research (ISSR) at Arizona State University.

AbstractThis paper notes the recent increased interest of leisure researchers in the concepts of human rights and social justice, with social justice being particularly favored by North America researchers. Since both concepts concern the just treatment and well-being of individuals and social groups in contemporary society, the paper aims to establish whether they represent distinctly different approaches to analysis or are overlapping in meaning and possibly complementary. It is found that, while some proponents of social justice down-play the significance of human rights, it is widely accepted that human rights are a component of social justice and that broad inclusive definitions of human rights encompass most of the concerns of social justice. It is therefore concluded that the two approaches to leisure analysis are complementary and each would benefit from incorporation of elements of the other in its conceptual framework and from more extensive engagement key generic social theory and policy frameworks.Keywords: Human rightssocial justicedistributive justiceleisure AcknowledgementsI am grateful to the anonymous reviewers for their helpful and encouraging comments on the submitted version of the paper.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Notes1 See: www.margaretthatcher.org/archive/Hayek2 Culture is defined by the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (Citation2009) as, “ways of life, language, oral and written literature, music and song, non-verbal communication, religion or belief systems, rites and ceremonies, sport and games, methods of production or technology, natural and man-made environments, food, clothing and shelter and the arts, customs and traditions through which individuals, groups of individuals and communities express their humanity and the meaning they give to their existence” (pp. 3-4).3 In Justice as Fairness Rawls (Citation2001) also discusses the possibility of adding leisure time to the list of primary social goods and concludes that it is “open to view” (p. 179).4 In fact, the Universal Declaration, which Rawls did not mention, achieved this consensus with the extensive list of rights shown in Figure 1.5 The first value resonates with capabilities-based approaches to human rights advanced by Sen (Citation2005) and Nussbaum (Citation2011, pp. 33-34).6 It has also been suggested that social democratic principles underlie much leisure research (Veal, Citation1998).
摘要本文注意到近年来休闲研究者对人权和社会正义概念的兴趣日益浓厚,其中社会正义尤其受到北美研究者的青睐。由于这两个概念都涉及当代社会中个人和社会群体的公正待遇和福祉,因此本文旨在确定它们是否代表了截然不同的分析方法,还是在意义上重叠并可能互补。报告发现,虽然一些社会正义的支持者低估了人权的重要性,但人们普遍认为,人权是社会正义的一个组成部分,广泛包容的人权定义涵盖了社会正义的大多数关切。因此,得出的结论是,休闲分析的两种方法是互补的,每一种方法都将受益于在其概念框架中纳入另一种元素,并受益于更广泛地参与关键的一般社会理论和政策框架。关键词:人权社会公正分配公正休闲感谢匿名审稿人对所提交论文版本的帮助和鼓励意见。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。Notes1看:www.margaretthatcher.org/archive/Hayek2联合国经济、社会和文化权利委员会(Citation2009)对文化的定义是:“生活方式、语言、口头和书面文学、音乐和歌曲、非语言交流、宗教或信仰体系、仪式和仪式、体育和游戏、生产或技术方法、自然和人造环境、食物、服装和住所以及艺术、习俗和传统,个人通过这些方式,个人群体和社区表达他们的人性和他们赋予他们存在的意义”(第3-4页)在《正义即公平》(Citation2001)中,罗尔斯还讨论了将休闲时间添加到主要社会商品列表中的可能性,并得出结论认为这是“开放的”(第179页)事实上,罗尔斯并未提及的《世界人权宣言》通过图1.5所示的广泛权利清单达成了这一共识。第一个价值观与Sen (Citation2005)和Nussbaum (Citation2011, pp. 33-34)提出的基于能力的人权方法产生了共鸣也有人认为社会民主原则是休闲研究的基础(Veal, Citation1998)。

AbstractIn this hermeneutic phenomenological study I explored and interpreted the lived experiences of leisure of 11 African women immigrants living in Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic before the availability of vaccines. Gadamer’s theory of hermeneutic experience and Aristotle’s leisure philosophy afforded the philosophical bedrock. In-depth, online interviews were augmented with visual methods. After the initial shock of multidimensional loss as pandemic restrictions took hold, women quickly regrouped and were both courageous and resilient. They turned to their Christian faith to sustain them, making do with online services and finding solace in worship. The family circle sustained, and the home became a hive for leisure. Creative leisures were enthusiastically engaged in, and gardening, cultivating, and harvesting were essential to well-being. Through it all, the African ethic of ubuntu permeated their way of being and uplifted them even in the presence of plague and death.Keywords: African immigrant womenCOVID-19hermeneutic phenomenologyleisure Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 All participants are referred to as immigrants, no matter their status when they first arrived in Canada (Ludwig, Citation2016).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) Doctoral Fellowship.

The societal benefits of having greater access to rivers are numerous, but conflict sometimes ensues between recreational users. Using Wales as a case example, we conducted a survey to better understand the underlying beliefs and emotions of different river users in relation to river access. Sixty per cent of respondents felt there was conflict over river access, but perceptions differed with age and river usage. Most boaters wanted greater access to rivers, in stark contrast to anglers. Greater dialogue was highlighted as a necessary step to reduce conflict, but support for specific management actions such as usage tariffs, spatial or temporal zoning, or limiting the number of users were much less popular. River users differed in cooperativeness and assertiveness but consistently flagged water pollution as the most important factor detracting from their enjoyment of rivers. Sentiment analysis indicated that “trust” was the dominant emotion shared by all river users.

AbstractProtected areas around the globe face increasing visitation numbers and crowding, a situation exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Although measured visitor density and perceived crowding are strongly related, analyses of this relationship are lacking. We argue that measured visitor density serves as a reliable and objective indicator of perceived crowding. This study therefore examined the effects of visitation numbers, perceived encounters, and expectations on perceived crowding in the Bavarian Forest National Park (Germany). Automated visitor counts at six park locations were linked to data from an on-site crowding survey conducted in 2021. A predictive model and visitation thresholds were calculated using a logistic regression, which showed that visitation numbers are a well-suited predictor of crowding. The results indicated a strong association between measured visitor density and perceived crowding, moderated by site-specific conditions. The calculated thresholds provide a valuable instrument that can be used to inform the public in advance about peak visiting times.Keywords: Perceived crowdingpredictive modelprotected areavisitation numbersvisitor density AcknowledgmentsWe are indebted to the interviewers and to the survey participants in the Bavarian Forest National Park.Disclosure statementWe declare no conflict of interest.Additional informationFundingThis work was funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of the Environment and Consumer Protection, project “Analysis of the socio-ecological system in the Bavarian Forest National Park”.

AbstractThe present study utilized a scenario-based cross-sectional survey to assess whether the participation intention toward a sport team’s philanthropic corporate social responsibility (P-CSR) initiative varies among sport spectators and fans based on their strength of psychological connection to the team. Among the four groups (i.e. awareness, attraction, attachment, and allegiance) introduced by the psychological continuum model (PCM), the study found a statistical difference in P-CSR participation intention across most groups within the high P-CSR condition. In the low P-CSR condition, the attachment and the allegiance groups were the only categories with no difference in P-CSR participation intention. The study provides theoretical contributions to the PCM literature, as it is the first to use a self-classification method to segment fans into their respective PCM stages. The study also has meaningful implications for sport practitioners who thrive on interacting with their consumers by developing a community through P-CSR initiatives.Keywords: Consumer behavioral intentioncorporate social responsibility (CSR)philanthropic initiativepsychological continuum model (PCM)sport consumer segmentation Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

AbstractAdventure recreation is a growing form of leisure associated with optimal psychological states reported to involve intensely pleasant emotions, optimal functioning, and a sense of achievement or fulfillment. However, much of the research on this topic has primarily focused on singular optimal state models (e.g. flow, peak experience), which have often been developed and refined in traditional sport contexts. This study investigated the potential utility of a multiple optimal state model (i.e. flow and clutch) for understanding optimal psychological states experienced across a range of adventure recreation activities (e.g. rockclimbing, snowboarding, white-water kayaking). Data were collected with 20 participants (mean age = 35.7 years, SD = 10.7) via the Scanlan Collaborative Interview Method.

However, much of the research on this topic has primarily focused on singular optimal state models (e.g. flow, peak experience), which have often been developed and refined in traditional sport contexts. This study investigated the potential utility of a multiple optimal state model (i.e. flow and clutch) for understanding optimal psychological states experienced across a range of adventure recreation activities (e.g. rockclimbing, snowboarding, white-water kayaking). Data were collected with 20 participants (mean age = 35.7 years, SD = 10.7) via the Scanlan Collaborative Interview Method. While flow and clutch states were reported to both involve an immersive, present moment focus, flow states were characterized by expanded attentional focus, connection to nature, effortlessness, and intuitive, pleasurable movements, whereas clutch states were characterized by a narrow focus on achieving a difficult outcome and deliberate thinking about bodily movements, followed by a sense of achievement.

Violence. Dead crabs by the many thousands on the beach. Dead fish too. Ponds full of tires. Bubbles surfacing from broken gas pipes somewhere at the bottom of the river. The wind sweeping through the wreckage of an abandoned steelworks providing an incessant hum that echoes across this coastal ‘wasteland’ of the Anthropocene. Someone fishing sits huddled on a concrete jetty. A surfer, shivering, hurriedly pulls and tugs on a neoprene wetsuit as they dance on the snow. His mates wait for him. A beachcomber hunts for washed up mining tools to turn into art. Relationships with nature—this post-industrial ‘wasteland’ is nature too—in this place may make you feel better. They may not, also. This is polluted leisure in the Anthropocene.
