It also helps adolescents to interact with society and achieve self-realization. To develop correct attitude toward leisure activities helps have wonderful leisure experience. Consequently, it is an important issue to discover adolescents’ leisure activities demand and their leisure attitude, and investigate the relationship between leisure activities demand and leisure attitudes. The study based on the literature review to build up the framework of the research. Questionnaires were used on secondary school students at the age of over 12 and under 18 and distributed 402 questionnaires in class with purposive convenience sampling. In return, 370 valid questionnaires that met the response rate of 92 % were analyzed by descriptive statistical analysis and Pearson correlation analysis. The results were as follows: 1. Actual adolescents’ leisure activities demands were more in “electric media” and "static" types, and less in "education" and "appreciation" types. As for the potential demands for leisure activities, there were less participation constraints in “electric media” and "static" types, and more in "travel" and "social intercourse" types. As for the deferred demands for leisure activities, there were less participation constraints in "electric media" and "static" types, and more in "appreciation" and "education" types. 2. Adolescents’ leisure attitudes had more identification with leisure cognitive and affective but less with leisure behavioral intention. 3. As for the relationship between actual demands of leisure activities and leisure attitudes, all aspects were significantly correlated except for leisure activity potential demands and leisure cognitive attitudes, leisure activity deferred demands and leisure cognitive attitudes which had no relationship. Based on the results, the study proposed some discussion and suggestions, and provided follow-up reference for relevant units to study. 【Key words】 adolescent, leisure activities demand, leisure attitude
