Abstract: Leisure is the activity that people volunteer to participate to free themselves from pressures outside. Leisure is not only the indispensable part in urban residents’ normal life, but also the focus of researchers’ attention. This paper, based on the statistics in China General Social Survey in 2006（CGSS2006）, classified urban residents into six categories based on their participation frequency in leisure activities. Although these categories of male and female are quite similar, the total leisure frequency of female urban residents are lower than male urban residents. The leisure activities for female are studied in the light of low frequency, press and music preferred, traditional, high frequency type, and home staying type. On the whole, women urban residents participated less in leisure activities and prefer the participation at home. Meanwhile, from the result of multinomial logistic regression, those women urban residents who are younger, highly educated, out of work, and happier in their life, participate more in leisure activities.

摘要： 休闲是人们从外在压力中解脱出来而自愿进行的娱乐活动。休闲不仅是城市居民日常生活中不可或缺的部分，还一直是学者们关注的焦点。本文根据人们参与休闲活动的频率，分别将城市女性居民与男性居民分为6种潜在休闲类型，两者在类别的划分上十分相似，但是总体而言，女性居民的休闲频率低于男性居民。本文还单独考察了城市女性居民参与休闲活动的频率，将其分为低频型、报刊音乐偏好型、传统型、高频型和室内型5种潜在休闲类型，从对应的类别概率来看，城市女性居民的休闲频率普遍偏低，且比较偏好室内进行的休闲活动。同时，多分类logistic回归的结果表明，年龄越小、教育程度越高、没有工作、总体生活幸福度高的城市女性居民参与休闲活动的频率相对更高。
