Abstract
"In relation to leisure theory, the present study found that over half of the women were unfamiliar with the word ""leisure"". The study also questioned perceived freedom as a central construct of the leisure experience, and the traditional conceptualization of leisure constraints. Lastly, the present study supported the emerging literature that notes leisure can have positive and negative aspects. Additional research is also need in these areas."
