本研究的目的在探討宗教信仰與休閒活動的關聯性，以期對台灣的休閒政策、休閒產業、宗教團體及教育界能提出助益性的建議。 本研究以「台灣青少年成長歷程研究」中的第八波(有關休閒)及第九波(有關宗教)的問卷內容為實證研究依據，所得資料以描述性統計法及二維表列分析法，將其統計結果加以分析探討。研究結果發現：1.不同的宗教信念或虔誠度與休閒活動的參與情況並無直接且明顯的因果關聯性。2.有47.09%的受訪者是無宗教信仰，而在有宗教信仰者中，比例最高為民間信仰者(26.78%)，其次為佛教信徒(12.74%)，第三高則為信奉道教者(7.60%)。3.在休閒活動的參與度方面，「聽音樂」占最高比例(56.23%)，其次為「閱讀」(20.57%)，第三高則是「運動休閒」(16.46%)。4.受訪者對神靈的信念是有高贊同度，而對宗教信仰、休閒活動的重要性，亦有相當程度的同意度，所以研究者覺得：嘗試使用更多不同的宗教與休閒參與變數和指標，或有助於進一步釐清兩者之關聯。故本研究議題仍值得繼續探討。 The purpose of the research explores the relationship between religious religious beliefs and leisure activities and gives some helpful suggestion to the leisure policies, leisure industry,religious groups, and educators. The research is based on the empirical research data in Taiwan Youth Project: J1W9S and J1W8S,and analyzes the statistical results with descriptive statistical method and binary logistic.In conclusion, the researcher finds: 1. There is no obvious and direct relationship between different religious beliefs and leisure activities.2. 47.09% objects of the project have no religious beliefs. Of all the objects with religious beliefs, the highest proportion is folklore religions, and the second is Buddhism, and the third is Taoism.3. About the participation of leisure activities, the highest one is listening to music, the second one is reading, and the third is playing sports.4. However, most objects of the study agree with not only the importance of religious beliefs and leisure activities but also the existence of souls. The researcher thinks perhaps trying to use more different religion and leisure variables and indexes can help clarify the relationship between both them. So the issue of the research is worth keeping studying.
