“…When the literature on leisure constraints was first published in the 1960s and 1970s, such constraints were defined as 'barriers to participation' (Crawford and Godbey, 1987;Jackson, 1988). Later, they were described as inhibitors of people's ability to participate in leisure activities, to spend more time doing these activities, to use leisure services, or to achieve a desired level of satisfaction (Jackson, 1988).…”

“…Finally, this last conceptualization was later modified by Crawford et al (1991). They combined the three models of Crawford and Godbey (1987) into a single model, and added concepts like constraints negotiation and the hierarchy of importance (in which intrapersonal constraints are the most important).…”

“…Other dichotomies are also used, such as personal and social constraints (Boothby et al, 1981). This dichotomy was later extended to a threefold classification of interpersonal or interactive, intrapersonal or intrinsic, and structural or environmental constraints (Crawford and Godbey, 1987). The last type influences preferences, while the other two can affect both preferences and participation.…”

“…Searle and Jackson (1985) proposed that the effects of leisure constraints be seen as a sequence rather than something simultaneous. Consequently, three separate models corresponding to each of the three types of barriers were developed (Crawford and Godbey, 1987). Finally, this last conceptualization was later modified by Crawford et al (1991).…”

In Spain, more than 2.5 million people live with some form of disability (Imserso, 2014). Tourism constraints are defined as factors influencing travel participation and behaviour, and can be divided into three categories: intrapersonal, interpersonal, and structural. The aim of this exploratory study is to develop and validate a measurement scale for each of these types of tourism constraints faced by 248 Spanish tourists with disabilities. The results show that intrapersonal constraints are due to three factors: lack of knowledge, health-related problems, and physical and psychological dependency. Interpersonal constraints are divided into two factors: skill-challenge incongruities and communication. Structural constraints are classified into four factors: information and communication, cost and attendant, socio-spatial, and attitudinal. Taking into consideration the importance of this market segment both in Spain and all over the world, this study provides tourism destinations with a quantitative tool for evaluating the barriers tourists with special access needs may encounter at a destination. Keywords: accessible tourism; tourism for all; disability; barriers Resumen. Barreras turísticas para turistas españoles con discapacidad: desarrollo y validación de una escalaEn España, más de 2,5 millones de personas viven con algún tipo de discapacidad (Imserso, 2014). Las barreras turísticas se pueden definir como factores que influencian la participación y el comportamiento de los turistas y se dividen en tres categorías: intrapersonales, interpersonales y estructurales. El objetivo de este estudio exploratorio es desarrollar y validar una escala para medir los tipos de barreras que 248 turistas españoles con algún tipo de discapacidad deben afrontar cuando viajan. Los resultados muestran que de las barreras intrapersonales derivan tres factores distintos: falta de conocimiento, problemas de salud y dependencia física y psicológica. Las barreras interpersonales se dividen en dos factores: incongruencias entre habilidad y reto, y comunicación. Las barreras estructurales se clasifican en cuatro factores: información y comunicación, coste y cuidador, socio-espaciales, y de actitud. Teniendo en cuenta la importancia de este segmento de mercado en España y el resto del mundo, el artículo aporta una herramienta cuantitativa para que los destinos turísticos puedan evaluar las barreras turísticas que estos turistas con necesidades especiales de accesibilidad pueden encontrar cuando los visitan. Palabras clave: turismo accesible; turismo para todos; discapacidad; barreras Résumé.

“…In spite of these benefits, sport participation peaks between the ages of 10 and 13 years, and then consistently declines till the age of 18 years (Ewing & Seefeldt, 1989). Research has shown that participation in sport is influenced by several constraints which according to Crawford and Godbey (1987) are classified as structural, intrapersonal, and interpersonal constraints. Structural constraints refer to factors such as lack of facilities, time constraints, financial resources, etc.…”

This study was carried out to examine constraints to sport participation among female secondary school students in Hlanganani rural area, Limpopo Province, South Africa. A total of 101 female students aged 17-24 years from four secondary schools were recruited to participate in the study. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. Results indicated that the dress code, lack of energy, lack of family support and family commitment were identified as major constraints to sport participation among female students. The results of this study provide practical implications for promoting and developing female sports programmes in rural schools. This study suggests that stakeholders such as parents, peers, and teachers should motivate and encourage female students to participate in school sport. Additionally, the study recommended that in order to promote sport participation in rural areas, the values, norms, beliefs, attitudes and customs that restrict females from participating in sport and physical activity should be dissented.

Although leisure constraints that individuals have to cope with can negatively affect their social inclusion and satisfaction with life, little research has addressed the link between these variables. Therefore, the current paper examined the moderator role of leisure constraints on the relationship between satisfaction with life and leisure constraints among adults living in five different European countries. The respondents were 1,382 women and 877 men adults. The findings of analysis revealed that all factors used in the study accounted for 15% of the variance in satisfaction with life and social inclusion had a significant and positive impact on satisfaction with life. As a result, it can be said that leisure constraints had a moderating effect on the relationship between satisfaction with life and social inclusion. The present research study recommends that social inclusion should be encouraged through decreasing to leisure constraints to increase the life satisfaction.
