spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/10747 Leisure boredom and risk behaviour in adolescence Wegner, Lisa Flisher, Alan J Psychiatry and Mental Health Includes bibliographical references (leaves 197-216). There has been very little research investigating leisure boredom and risk behaviour among adolescents in South Africa. The purpose of the research reported in this thesis was to investigate how adolescents experience leisure and boredom in their free time, and how this is associated with risk behaviour - specifically substance use, sexual risk behaviour and premature school leaving (dropout). The thesis comprises five interrelated studies. 2014-12-31T19:53:21Z 2014-12-31T19:53:21Z 2008 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10747 eng application/pdf Department of Psychiatry and Mental Health Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
