Leisure activity isn't just for fun,’ says a University of Florida psychologist who has developed a scale that classifies hobbies based on needs they satisfy in people. The scale can help people find more personal fulfilment by giving them insight into what they really like. ‘The surprising thing is that activities you might think are very different have similar effects on people,’ said Howard EA Tinsley, and UF psychology professor who developed the measurement.' Probably no one would consider acting to have the same characteristics as roller-skating or playing baseball, but men and women who act as a hobby report feeling an intense sense of belonging to a group, much the same way others do in playing sports.’ And activities providing the strongest sense of comрetition are not sports, but card, arcade and computer games, he found. Participating in soccer satisfies our desire for a sense of 'belonging' and coin collecting and baking fulfil their need for creativity. ‘With so many people in jobs they dont care for, leisure is a prized aspеt of people's lives,’ Tinsley said. "Yet it's not something psychologists really study. Economists tell us how much money people spend skiing, but nobody explains why skiing really appeals to people. Or how one activity relates to another, perhaps in unexpected ways," Tinsley said. 'Fishing, generally considered more of an outdoor recreational activity, for example, is a form of self-expression like quilting or stamp collecting, beсause it gives people the opportunity to express some aspect of their personality by doing something completely different from their daily routine ,' he said.
Both acting and roller-skating give people a strong feeling of being part of a team.
Taking part in sports gives you the strongest desire to win.
Collecting things satisfies people's desire for making things.
Researchers already know why a hobby attracts a person.
Fishing allows you to show the type of person you are.
