abstract: 'This study analyses the effect of participating in leisure activities on
the levels of life satisfaction reported by people with and without
disabilities. Particular attention is paid to exploring how different
types of leisure activities (e.g. social gatherings, cultural events,
active sports, volunteer work, etc.) affect individuals'' life
satisfaction and which of them contribute most to improving it. Using
longitudinal data at an individual level from the German Socio-Economic
Panel, we estimate a ``Probit Adapted OLS (POLS){''''} model which allows
us to identity the determinants of life satisfaction by disability
status and to control for the unobserved heterogeneity and thus
determine cause and effect between the key variables. Although
participation in leisure activities increases the life satisfaction
scores reported by people with disabilities (except for the
participation in public initiatives), this effect is quite different by
leisure activity. The participation in leisure activities such as
holidays, going out, or attending cultural events and church has a
significant positive effect on the life satisfaction of people with
disabilities. Event organizers, destination managers, business owners,
professionals, governments, and the leisure industry in general must
promote and facilitate full access and participation of people with
disabilities in all leisure activities, especially in those that
contribute more intensely to increasing their life satisfaction scores.
The elimination of all disabling barriers, the understanding of their
differential needs and the existence of inclusive leisure environments
are key elements for improving the life satisfaction of people with
disabilities.'
