An Exploratory Study of Serious Leisure and Lifestyle for Amateur Athletes

The purpose of this exploratory study was to apply the concept of serious leisure to gain an under-standing of how amateur athletes in a community setting integrate their free-time interests with life-style. A secondary purpose was to investigate which characteristics of serious leisure may identify the participants’ levels of dedication to participation in an adult sport program. The study was con-ducted in the south-central region of the United States in a rural city. A total of 252 pen-and-paper based surveys were collected from softball and volleyball players who enrolled in the community sport program in the fall of 2010. The results indicated that all six serious leisure characteristics (perseverance, personal effort, career progress, career contingencies, strong identification, and unique ethos) were able to distinguish the rural amateur athletes’ level of sport lifestyle, while strong identification and unique ethos were the two serious leisure characteristics that generated the greatest differences between the two levels of sport lifestyle of amateur athletes

Seventeenth century Puritan writings on child rearing and education and Shakespeare's Coriolanus

The study will attempt to show that Shakespeare, although not an overt Puritan advocate himself, understood the early seventeenth-century Puritan attitudes toward family formation and reflected on several family issues in this play which deals with the education and character development of an aristocratic Roman boy who has grown up to be a military hero. Additionally, in the seventeenth century Puritans believed the nation could be morally reformed one family at a time if children were educated properly. Some modern politicians echo the same sentiment. In a way this study also informs contemporary culture and represents what Howard calls the "mutual intertextual influence" of history, literature, the times, and the writer (25)
