Summary:碩士 === 靜宜大學 === 觀光事業學系研究所 === 98 === In recent years, more and more teenagers group bands as a result of fashions since the band has been being a central role within movie and festival industries. It is normal that playing in a band is one of leisure activities nowadays. Two theories were adopted in this research; one is serious leisure originated by Stebbins in 1992, and another is recreation specialization issued by Bryan in 1977. The purpose of the research was to explore the relationship between two theories sampling from music band players. The research was aimed at high school music clubs and college music clubs in central section of Taiwan with 674 retrieved samples. Perseverance, careers, significant personal effort, durable benefits, unique ethos and identity are six characteristics of serious leisure using scale meters referenced from Tsaur and Liang in 2008. The theory of recreation specialization adopted the concept of Bryan using behavior, cognitive and affective referenced from McIntyre and Pigram in 1992. Before carrying out the research, the researcher interviewed several professionals toward the questionnaire in order to fit the research. Based on the research finding, it represented that there are some differences between characteristics identity of serious leisure and the involvement level of recreation specialization based on separated attributes of music band players. Secondly, six characteristics of serious leisure are correlated with three dimensions of recreation specialization. Thirdly, the six characteristics of serious leisure, especially in “careers”, “perseverance” and “unique ethos” are able to positively predict three dimensions of recreation specialization in whole. It is obviously showed that “perseverance” and “unique ethos” are mainly and positively predict three dimensions of recreation specialization in high school music band players; “career” and “identity” are particularly and positively predict three dimensions of recreation specialization in college music band players.
