Abstract

[Purpose/significance]Through reviewing the serious leisure information behavior theory and practice, this paper analyzes the problems about serious leisure information behavior research and puts forward the research contents and research thought in the future.[Method/process]Based on the serious leisure theory,this paper reviews the research progress of domestic and overseas literatures on the information behavior theory, information behavior features and influence factor in the serious leisure activities and summarizes the current research status.[Result/conclusion]Through the analysis, the paper finds that the research abroad further stays in description of surface phenomena, but not delve into its background, causes and mechanism on the leisure information behavior research, and the research at home has little related study. Several commons and gaps between domestic and overseas research in the aspects of research perspectives, research contents and research methods have been found.
