Abstract

The researchers, through reviewing previous studies and both Arabic and international scientific references, concluded that social recreational determinants play a significant role in utilizing leisure time. These determinants enhance motivation for participation and positively influence students' academic performance. Given the current extraordinary circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, with governments imposing restrictions on public gatherings and closing schools, universities, clubs, and recreational facilities, there has been a negative impact on participation in activities as well as on students' academic performance. This prompted the researchers to conduct this study to explore the reality of social recreational determinants among students.

The researchers employed the descriptive methodology using both survey and analytical approaches. The study's sample was selected comprehensively, comprising 320 specialists from the research population. Additionally, a questionnaire was administered to a sample of 30 female students from the Faculty of Physical Education at Helwan University. The results revealed that the reality of recreational activity determinants was moderate, with the overall response rate reaching 76.55%.
