Abstract
Despite the importance of social context in understanding individuals’ leisure behavior, there have been few investigations into how individuals’ membership of social class influences their use of different constraint negotiation strategy. This study explored social class as a moderator of the relationship between leisure identity, negotiation strategy and participation among recreational golfers. The results revealed that the extent to which identity predicts negotiation strategy use varies significantly across social classes. Leisure identity more strongly predicted self-focused/internally oriented strategies for respondents from the upper class while the stronger association between leisure identity and other-focused/externally oriented strategies was observed among individuals from the lower class.
