LEISURE RESEARCH? PRESENT AND FUTURE: WHO? WHAT? WHERE? Rick Crandall and John Lewke, Journal of leisare Research (1601 North Kent Street, Arlington, Virginia 22209, USA) Volume 8, Number 3, 1976,pp. 150-159. In order to facilitate.integration of the diverse research of leisure, the current study provides information about present and future research trends in North America. The current and proposed future research areas were found to cut across disciplinary boundaries. There were marked differences between current research interests and proposed directions for future research. The three most commonly current interests were: conceptual-historical, sociology of leisure, and sports. The three most commonly proposed directions for future research were antecedents and consequences of leisure behavio(, planning and service delivery, and the deveiopemnt of measurement methodologies. These trends are briefly discussed and related to the need for more interdisciplinary cooperation in leisure research.
