Abstract

The article is devoted to comparing the preferred leisure activity of the two age groups of Muscovites and to identifying the connection of these preferences with other socio-psychological parameters of their viability. The sample consisted of 258 respondents with two age groups: 158 aged 18-35 and 100 aged 61-84. Methods were used: value orientations, author’s questionnaires of preferences for leisure activity, social responsibility, evaluation of positive and negative perception of urban environment, «scale of urban identity» M. Lalli. It is found that leisure choices are characterized by entertainment in both groups, but its cultural and educational appearance – visiting exhibitions, museums, theatres – is more characteristic of the older generation. Young people are more likely to engage in leisure activities such as cafés, bars, restaurants, shopping and extreme entertainment, which are related to the stress of the city. The role of positive perception of the city – city holidays, etc. - in the choice of leisure activities is noted. A lack of internal responsibility among young people may be related both to a lack of time, to a general hedonic focus of leisure, and to a lack of confidence in their ability to influence urban solutions.
