Figure 2. Relationship between depressive symptoms and leisure activities engagement.

Figure 2

Mean change in depressive symptoms was significantly inversely correlated with change in leisure activity hours overall such that increases in total leisure activity were associated with decreases in depressive symptoms (r = −.21, p = .04).

Notes: Depressive symptoms were assessed with the 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale; Total hours engaged in leisure activities were assessed with the Community Healthy Activities Model Program for Seniors Scale.
