“…Tinsley, Barrett, and Kass (1977) identified 45 psychological needs that could potentially be satisfied by leisure activities. The satisfaction of these needs was empirically tested on participants in six different leisure activities, and this research was replicated and extended by Tinsley and Kass (1978). These studies established an empirical method for measuring the benefits of various leisure activities.…”

“…In addition, studies of leisure benefits (Driver, Brown, et al, 1991;Driver & Bruns, 1999;Tinsley & Kass, 1978, 1979 often mentioned skillrelated benefits. Benefits from all three of these categories (personal, skill, and social/cultural) were also cited frequently by researchers in the field of adult music education.…”

“…Results again showed strong evidence for two categories of needs satisfied by participation in leisure: those needs that were leisure activity specific and varied from activity to activity, and those needs that were leisure activity general and were satisfied to some extent by participation in all leisure activities. The leisure activity specific and leisure activity general needs identified by the studies outlined above are presented in Table 1 (Driver, Tinsley, & Manfredo, 1991;Tinsley et al, 1977;Tinsley & Kass, 1978, 1979. (Tinsley et al, 1977).…”

Study design: Cross sectional survey. Objective: To examine the nature and prevalence of common mental disorders among informal carers of people with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) and the association with their leisure satisfaction. Setting: Christian Medical College, Vellore, Tamilnadu, India. Methods: A cross-sectional survey of informal carers of people SCI at the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Fifty-three informal carers of people with SCI were interviewed using the Revised Clinical Interview Schedule to assess psychiatric morbidity, and using the Leisure Satisfaction Scale to measure leisure and contentment. Data on carers with psychiatric morbidity were compared to those without common mental disorders using univariate and multivariate statistics. Results: Study reported a high morbidity (53%), with most consistent diagnoses of depression and anxiety. Carers who were spouses, women, currently married and those with lower education had greater psychiatric morbidity and lesser leisure satisfaction, even after adjusting for age and education using logistic/linear regression. Age, occupation, residence, socioeconomic status, type and duration of SCI were not associated with either morbidity or leisure satisfaction. Conclusion: Many carers of people with SCI suffer from psychiatric morbidity and also have low scores on leisure satisfaction.
