(1) Different background variables reach significant level in the dimensions of “mass media,” “cultural activities,” “social activities,” “outdoor recreation,” “hobbies.”
(2) Different background variables do not reach significant level in the dimension of “sports activities.”
2. Analysis of stress in the workplace of military personnel of Armed Forces Reserve Command in Southern Taiwan and its subordinate units
Different background variables all reach significant level in the dimensions of “family life and work,” “career development,” “role conflict,” “unit currently in service,” “interpersonal relationships,” “workload,” “hours of work.”
3. Analysis of leisure participation and stress in the workplace
There is a positive correlation between the overall dimensions of “current condition of leisure participation” and “stress in the workplace” for personnel in the ROC Armed Forces. This indicates that the more the military personnel participate in leisure activities, the higher their stress in the workplace is.
It is therefore suggested that the ROC Armed Forces should promote reading activities. In addition, these promotions can be incorporated in academic speeches or educational training for military corps, so that these personnel have the opportunities to participate and enjoy the activities and alleviate their stress in the workplace.
Key words: leisure participation, stress in the workplace, personnel in the ROC Armed Forces, Armed Forces Reserve Command
