Abstract

A samp le of 353 respondents showed that the Paid Labour is a very important factor in explaining the perceived QoL, followed by the active leisure and to a lesser degree by the passive leisure. The satisfaction of Life appears to be influenced more from the perceived QoL and to a lesser degree from the time allocation and leisure
