Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between degree of influence of agents of socialization and leisure self-efficacy among a young adult sample of university students. Four hundred nine university students in general education classes completed instruments measuring the influence of four agents of socialization (parents, peers, teachers, and television) and three indicators of leisure self-efficacy. LISREL was used to examine the relationships between the socialization influences and the indicators of leisure self-efficacy. Degree of peer influence was found to be significantly related to leisure self-efficacy for both males and females. For females, parental influences were also found to be significantly related to leisure self-efficacy.
