| Sumario: | Leisure activity budgets, temporal patterns, and perception of leisure allocation differ between people with different leisure and income budgets. Focusing on individuals who are gainfully employed we examine the inequalities of leisure time and perception of time use in addition to income inequalities. This research follows the tradition of Linder (1970) which has been further applied by, among others, Lindskog and Brege (2003) and Bonke, Deding, and Lausten (2004), for example. Using data of the German Time Use Survey 2001/2002, a typology of lifestyle groups was generated using cluster analysis. Three types were found which differed in their leisure budgets, activities, temporal patterns, perception of time use, and sociodemograpic structure. Reprinted by permission of the publisher.
