Well-being, Flow Experience and Personal Characteristics of Czech and Slovak surfers

Original language description

The main of our research was to explore the relationship between surfing and flow experience, life satisfaction and personality characteristics of Czech and Slovak surfers, who do surfing on a regular basis. We worked with two samples: Surf group (N=69) and Non-surf group (N=70). The data was collected by an online questionnaire which consisted of the Flow State Scale-2 (Řezáč, 2007), the Life Satisfaction Questionnaire (Fahrenberg et al., 2001) and the NEO 5-factor Personality Inventory (Hřebíčková &amp; Urbánek, 2001). The Flow Questionnaire (Csikszentmihalyi &amp; Csikszentmihalyi, 1982) was administrated for the Non-surf group to identify flow activity. In connection with the flow experience, surfers described dimensions of autotelic experience and experienced time transformation more often than non-surfers and non-surfers described the flow dimensions of unambiguous feedback and sense of control more often than surfers.
