Citations in the corpus
- Leisure as a coping resource: A test of the job demand-control-support model (2009, background): “Iso-Ahola (1997) suggests, however, that passive leisure may be ineffective and potentially unhealthy because it reflects a form of ‘escapism’ from daily stressors that, if left unchecked, may turn into apathy and can undermine an active lifestyle, ultimately contributing to depressive symptoms.”
- Job characteristics and off-job activities as predictors of need for recovery, well-being, and fatigue. (2006, background): “Time spent outside the workplace must not be equated with leisure time because this time cannot be completely allocated to freely chosen and potentially recovering activities (Iso-Ahola, 1997).”
- After work is done: Psychological perspectives on recovery from work (2006, background): “Some people see the merits of leisure in its own right (Iso-Ahola, 1997).”
- Highway to health? Commute time and well-being among Canadian adults (2014, background): “Leisure participation is associated with greater life satisfaction, happiness and psychological well-being, and physically active leisure can moderate the detrimental effects of stress (Iso-Ahola, 1997).”
- The contribution of various types of activities to recovery (2006, background): “Moreover, physical activity has been extolled as a beneficial activity in its own right, becoming an ‘‘antidote’’ to anxiety and stress (Hull, 1990; Iso-Ahola, 1997; Iwasaki, 2001).”
- Work and rumination. (2011, background): “3 and developing one’s personality, in particular when people engage in activities and seek challenges that match their skills (Csikszentmihalyi, 1990; Iso-Ahola, 1997).”
