Abstract
This study examined the relationship between husbands' and wives' occupational characteristics, the extent of their involvement in three different types of leisure activities, and whether they engaged in these activities together or apart. The predictions of three models of the relationship between work and leisure—spillover, compensation, and neutrality—were tested using a sample of 66 dual-earner couples. Results revealed no consistent support for any of the three models but indicated that wives' occupational characteristics were important predictors of their independent leisure as well as couples' leisure companionship.
