有大量的研究表明，非裔美国人和欧裔美国人的休闲参与模式不同；然而，关于跨种族夫妇和家庭的休闲模式的研究一直很缺乏。因此，本研究的目的是调查跨种族夫妇和家庭，特别是非洲裔美国人和欧洲裔美国人夫妇的休闲模式。采用定性设计对六对夫妇进行深度访谈。研究结果表明，跨种族夫妇在日常生活的各个方面都感到社会孤立，包括工作、家庭和休闲。造成他们社会孤立的主要原因是种族和种族主义。夫妻在公共场所休闲时的舒适度较低。夫妻之间的休闲活动没有明显的模式；然而，为了避免负面的社会反应，夫妇们在参与之前要经历一个独特的过程来选择活动。
There has been a significant amount of research that has indicated divergent patterns of leisure participation among African Americans and European Americans; however, there has been a paucity of research that addresses the leisure patterns of interracial couples and families. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the leisure patterns of interracial couples and families, specifically African American and European American couples. A qualitative design was employed to gather in-depth interview data from six couples. The findings indicated that the interracial couples felt socially isolated in various aspects of daily life, including work, family, and leisure. The primary cause of their social isolation was due to race and racism. The couples experienced low levels of comfort when participating in leisure within public spaces. There was not a distinct pattern of leisure activity among the couples; however, there was a distinct process the couples went through in selecting activities prior to participation in order to avoid negative social reactions.
