“…Social support is one particularly important resource that helps in restoring lost or threatened resources (Hobfoll, 1998). Empirical research has shown that social support is positively related to well-being (Viswesvaran, Sanchez, & Fisher, 1999) and that individuals who spent their leisure time together with others are better off in terms of well-being (Hills & Argyle, 1998;Iso-Ahola & Park, 1996), even in jobs that are characterized by high emotion work demands (Sonnentag, 2001). …”

“…Pretty ve diğerlerinin (2005) çalışmalarında, yeşil alanlarda fiziksel aktiviteye katılan bireylerde fiziksel ve psikolojik iyilik hallerinde ilerleme olduğu aynı zamanda benlik saygılarında da artış gözlendiği belirtilmektedir. IsoAhola ve Park (1996) rekreatif faaliyet katılımında bireylerin zihinsel problemlerden biri olan depresyonun yaşam stresiyle pozitif ilişkili iken, algılanan sağlık yaşamı, içsel motivasyon, arkadaşlık, dostluk ve algılanan özgürlük değişkenleri ile negatif ilişkili olduğu sonucuna ulaşmışlardır. Coleman ve Iso-Ahola (1993) boş zaman etkinliklerine katılımın bireylerde iki fayda sağladığını, birincisinin, etkinliklerde paylaşılan arkadaşlığın günlük yaşam stresinin aşırılıklarıyla uğraşırken insanlar için etkili bir rahatlama sağladığı, ikincisinin, birçok boş zaman deneyiminin temelini oluşturan özgürlük, kontrol, yeterlilik ve içsel motivasyon algılamalarının kendi kaderlerini tayin etmeye teşvik ettiğidir.…”

ÖzÇalışanların iyilik hallerinin yüksek olması rekabet ortamında işletmelere önemli avantajlar sağlayacaktır. Çalışanların iyilik düzeylerinin arttırılmasında rekreatif faaliyetlere yönelik bilinç, katılım ve yaşam tarzına dönüşme düzeyi önem arz etmektedir. Araştırmanın amacı, kamu ve özel sektör çalışanlarının rekreatif faaliyet katılımlarında algıladıkları sağlık sonuçlarını ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaçla, kamu ve özel sektörde çalışan 318 çalışana anket uygulanmıştır. Veri toplamak için Rekreasyonun Algılanan Sağlık Sonuçları Ölçeği (PHORS) ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Veri analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistiklerin (frekans, yüzde, aritmetik ortalama, standart sapma) yanısıra, parametrik testler (t test, ANOVA) uygulanmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre kamu ve özel sektör çalışanlarının rekreatif faaliyet katılımı algılanan sağlık sonuçlarının cinsiyet, kamu\özel sektörde çalışma durumu, zaman yeterliliği algısı ve medeni duruma göre farklılaşmadığı, yaşa, eğitim durumu, gelir durumu, çalışma yılı ve katılınan rekreatif faaliyete göre farklılaştığı sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır.Anahtar Kelimeler: Kamu ve Özel Sektör, Rekreasyon, Rekreatif Faaliyet, Sağlık Algısı. AbstractA high level of employee well-being will provide significant advantages to businesses in a competitive environment. Increasing employee well-being, consciousness for recreational activities, participation and the level of transformation into a lifestyle are important. The aim of the research is to reveal the health outcomes that public and private sector employees perceive in recreational participation. For this purpose, 318 employee survey were applied in public and private sectors. Recreation Perceived Health Outcome Scale (PHORS) scale was used to collect data. In the data analysis, descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, arithmetic mean, standard deviation) as well as parametric tests (t test, ANOVA) were applied. According to the results of the research, the recruitment of recreational activities by public and private sector employees does not differ according to gender, working status in public sector, sense of time competence and marital status, differentiated according to age, educational status, income status, years of work and participating recreational activities, results have been achieved.

“…However, other studies have failed to confirm such benefits (Mojza, Sonnentag, & Bornemann, 2011;Sonnentag & Bayer, 2005). In spite of those inconsistent results, social activities are commonly seen as attenuating the stress-ill health relationship (Iso-Ahola & Park, 1996) because they may increase opportunities for social support (Sonnentag, 2001) and distract from stressful issues in general (Nolen-Hoeksema, Parker, & Larson, 1994). To understand these conflicting results other variables such as individual differences should be taken into consideration.…”

Work-related perseverative cognition (WPC) involves rumination about the past and worry about the future regarding workplace issues. Such cognition impedes workers' daily recovery and well-being as it fosters prolonged activation of psychological stressors during leisure time. Considering these detrimental effects, it is important, for both theoretical and practical considerations to highlight coping strategies that individuals can use to reduce daily WPC. Previous studies have led to contradictory results regarding the potential of social activities to decrease daily WPC. The aim of this study was to bring new insights on these results by examining how the benefits from time spent on social activities (i.e., reducing WPC) vary according to an individual's level of neuroticism. A total of 48 daytime workers from a Canadian university completed evening diaries on 10 days during two consecutive workweeks (316 data points). Participants recorded the number of minutes spent on social activities after each workday and the extent to which a series of WPC had crossed their mind during the evening. Results from Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) analyses revealed that time spent on social activities was associated to a daily decrease of WPC for workers low in neuroticism but to an increase of WPC for those high in neuroticism. This study suggests that workers high in neuroticism may be less likely to benefit from social activities. The discussion focuses on why potentially protective mechanisms associated with social activities may not be helpful to them. Practical implications based on individuals' level of neuroticism are offered.
