“…Este tiempo compartido contribuye también a incrementar el grado de satisfacción que el joven tiene con su vida familiar (Agate, Zabriskie, Agate & Poff, 2009;Barnes, Hoffman, Welte, Farrell & Ditcheff, 2007;Offer, 2013;Zabriskie & McCormick, 2001, 2003 de lo que se deriva que el hecho de compartir más tiempo en familia posibilita que progenitores e hijos disfruten de estos beneficios, lo que erige al tiempo compartido en familia en un indicador idóneo del bienestar familiar que depende, además de la cantidad de actividades compartidas, del tipo y la calidad de las mismas (Offer, 2014). Otros autores (Agate et al 2009;Barnes et al 2007;Crouter, Head, McHale & Tucker, 2004;Offer, 2014;Zabriskie et al, 2003;Zaborskis, Zemaitiene, Borup, Kuntsche & Moreno 2007) relacionan la percepción positiva de la calidad de vida de la familia con quienes intercambian más tiempo con sus miembros.…”

FINANCIACIÓN: El texto que presentamos se vincula al Proyecto de Investigación "De los tiempos educativos a los tiempos sociales: la cotidianidad familiar en la construcción del ocio físico-deportivo juvenil" (EDU2012-39080-C07-05), y configura los inicios del proyecto de I+D+I "Ocio y bienestar en clave intergeneracional: de la cotidianidad familiar a la innovación social en las redes abuelos-nietos" (EDU2017-85642-R); ambos cofinanciados en el marco del Plan Nacional I+D+I con cargo a dos ayudas del Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, y por el Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER). RESUMEN: La institución familiar se constituye en un agente de primer orden en la construcción del ocio de sus miembros, dada su potencialidad para hacer del tiempo compartido un tiempo valioso y educativo. Se ha evidenciado que las actividades compartidas en familia, incluidas las de ocio, reportan importantes beneficios a quienes las practican, lo que orienta a vincular el crecimiento personal y social, así como el bienestar familiar, con el tiempo compartido en familia. Este estudio pretende analizar la actitud y predisposición de los estudiantes españoles de educación secundaria postobligatoria y sus progenitores hacia la conciliación familiar y el ocio compartido en familia, atendiendo a variables como la participación de cada uno de sus miembros en actividades familiares, la satisfacción por compartir el tiempo libre, la cantidad de tiempo que pasan en familia y el grado de presión percibida para estar más tiempo juntos. Se adopta un enfoque metológico de carácter cuantitativo, desarrollado mediante la aplicación de la adaptación española del cuestionario FACES IV, que recoge información sobre la cohesión y la flexibilidad percibida en el seno familiar, a una muestra de 1764 estudiantes de todo el territorio español, también participaron 839 de sus progenitores. Los resultados evidencian que la mayor parte de los estudiantes y sus padres perciben que todos los miembros de sus familias participan en las actividades familiares, mostrando un alto grado de satisfacción respecto al tiempo libre que comparten, lo que descubre un ambiente familiar positivo y actitudes muy favorables de padres e hijos para la práctica de ocio en familia.

“…Based on the research, it is recommended that parents spend more time with their children in active leisure activities as this will help to foster a greater bond within the family while guiding them in terms of what they imitate and which model behaviour to adopt (Zabriskie and McCormick 2003). It is also recommended that parents ensure that their children are more exposed to television programs that contain themes of edutainment, family bonding and problem solving.…”

Socialization through Leisure: a Case Study of Nickelodeon Cable Television

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper considers the leisure activity of viewing the Nickelodeon cable television programs by adolescents between the ages of eight and 14 years as a possible socialization indicator inspired through leisure. Within this context, socialization is considered based on behaviour and attitude. The paper thus considers variables such as the quality and quantity of exposure to the station and its program and the level of perceived imitation and modelling by the respondents of their favourite Nickelodeon characters. This is in relation to Bandura's Social Learning Theory. The paper also considers the respondents' concept of reality as it relates to the cable station's programs and the respondent's decision of what they believe is acceptable public behaviour. The result showed that the respondents perceived that watching their favourite Nickelodeon program series is a form of leisure from which they deliberately expose themselves to mainly because they personally enjoy watching these programs. A number of the respondents also indicated that they tend to imitate their favourite Nickelodeon characters but most limit this imitation to when they are with friends or when alone. The major aspects imitated are the way their favourite Nickelodeon characters speak, dress and act. This suggests that television viewing has a long term effect on the selected respondents even though they are not heavy viewers, spending approximately 1-5 h a day on this leisure activity. A large percentage of the respondents also indicated that they did not believe that the world their favourite characters presented was real neither were they convinced that these characters could teach them more than their parents and teachers. This suggests that socialization institutions such as schools and parents still have a strong effect on other aspects of the respondent's lives such as academics, discipline and respect. This limited effect of television viewing on the respondent's concept of reality and worldview may be based on the limited time majority indicated they spend watching the station's programs. The selected respondents for this study are

“…The main idea of family systems theory is the stability of the family based on the ability to adapt and react to other family members (Zabriske & McCormick, 2003). Family also relates to life satisfaction in a very different way: a woman's decision to have children or not.…”
