Abstract
ABSTRACT This study explores the correlation between personality traits, serious leisure, and life satisfaction among amateur athletes with physical disabilities in Fars province, Iran. Using G*Power software, 132 participants were selected through cluster random sampling. Data was collected through the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), Serious Leisure questionnaire (SLQ), and a shortened NEO-FFI questionnaire. Analysis via multiple regressions unveiled a significant positive link between personality traits and serious leisure (p<0.001), as well as a significant correlation between personality traits and life satisfaction (p<0.002). However, no significant relationship between serious leisure dimensions and life satisfaction was found (p<0.05). These results emphasize the impact of personality traits on life satisfaction and engagement in serious leisure among physically disabled athletes. Future studies can delve deeper into specific personality traits affecting life satisfaction and leisure activities among individuals with physical disabilities. Further exploration of cultural and socioeconomic influences in diverse communities could provide comprehensive insights.
