Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine leisure constraints, a new variable termed cultural consonance in leisure (CCL), and leisure satisfaction as possible mediators in the relationship between socioeconomic status (SES) and self-rated health in six large cities in China. The hypothesis is that SES has a negative relationship with leisure constraints, that leisure constraints negatively influence CCL, that CCL positively affects leisure satisfaction, and that leisure satisfaction positively affects self-rated health. Structural equation modelling is used to evaluate the hypothesised relationships, and all but one of the relationships is supported. The results suggest that CCL may be a valuable construct to employ in future studies of constraints, leisure satisfaction and health.
