Abstract
Iso-Ahola and Weissinger (1990) developed Leisure Boredom Scale (LBS) to measure individual differences in perceptions of boredom in leisure, with a self-report questionnaire. The study aimed to compare and analyze LBS, applied on four leisure activities: camping, reading, sports spectating, and moviegoing. LBS is scored on 1 to 5 scale, with higher numbers equaling higher boredom and consists of 16 statements, with satisfactory reliability and validity.<BR> Total samples (n=400) were valid and used as a quota sampling to four activities respectively. The survey was conducted from August 1 to September 15 of 2021 through Google on-line survey.<BR> While Ragheb (1990) insisted outdoor recreation and reading be more likely to reduce feelings of boredom. Rather than sports spectating and media experiences, the result of study showed that camping in LBS was higher than moviegoing. There are sports spectating, camping, moviegoing, and reading in order. Furthermore, it is expected that LBS will be potentially useful in clinical remedy for adolescents.
