Abstract

The family is considered as the most important pillar and social environment for spending leisure time, but due to the lack of planning and efficient allocation of resources, it is exposed to opportunity burnout or psychological and social damage. In the statistical plan of household income and expenses of Iran Statistics Center, the average expenses and income of urban and rural households are estimated at the level of the country and provinces. The importance of this project is in studying the mutual relations of the socio-economic characteristics of households. The purpose of this article is to estimate the leisure expenditure demand function of households in urban areas of the country based on the latest data of 1401. In order to realize this problem, the influence of factors such as age, literacy level, gender, marital status and household head's facilities on household leisure expenditure was investigated and the coefficients of the multiple regression model were estimated with econometric tools. According to the results of the model, male-headed households spend less on leisure activities than female-headed households; Also, married guardians spend less money on leisure activities compared to single guardians. Owning a house and a private car is also effective in spending money on leisure activities
