Abstract

Nostalgia plays a crucial role in individuals’ psychological and behavioral responses. To identify the influence of nostalgia on leisure participants’ life, this study examined how individuals’ leisure nostalgia influenced their life satisfaction, thereby reinforcing their leisure participation intention. 417 responses were collected from leisure participants and analyzed in this study. Results showed that leisure nostalgia positively affected life satisfaction and leisure participation intention. In addition, life satisfaction had a significant effect on leisure participation intention. Further analysis revealed that the indirect effects of nostalgia regarding group identity and personal identity on leisure participation intention were significantly stronger than those of nostalgia regarding leisure experience, environment, and socialization. The theoretical and practical implications of this study are discussed.
