This paper
examines perceived constraints of physical education and other branches
teachers (music/arts) in relation to leisure activities. After legal
permissions 228 teachers, who work in city center Kütahya (a city in the west
part of Turkey), voluntarily participated in the study. Leisure Constraints
Scale-18- was used to collect data. To analyze the data in addition to
descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation, Mann Whitney U was
used. According to findings of the study while "time" was found to be
the most important factor, "lack of interest" was found to be the
least important factor as leisure constraints for all participants jointly.
Also, analyze results revealed that while physical education and sports teachers are more constrained by
intrapersonal factors other branch teachers are constrained by interpersonal
factors.
