Abstract

This study aimed to examine the workplace and out of workplace leisure behaviors of the academic staff according to age and academic title. The study was designed as a cross-sectional quantitative study. 229 teaching academic staff from Hatay Mustafa Kemal University participated in the research voluntarily. To obtain data, workplace and out of workplace leisure behaviors scales were used. The data was analyzed with SPSS 22 for Windows using One Way ANOVA. According to analysis results, both workplace and out of workplace leisure behaviors of the academic staff significantly changed according to age and academic title. As a conclusion this study showed that the most inlying workplace leisure activity for the participants was "activities related to non-business reading," and the most distal activity was “mental activities”. On the other hand, the most inlying out of workplace leisure activity was “internet-based activities”, and the most distal activity was “society based activities". Besides, these preferences differed significantly according to age and academic title.
