Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between the types of leisure (physical vs. sedentary) and subjective well-being with moderating effect of age. We found that sedentary-leisure satisfaction can be beneficial increasing subjective well-being, especially in older population. These findings suggest that sedentary-activity (e.g., watching-TV) contributes to successful aging along with physical-activity.
