In order to accomplish the study purpose, male and female collection groups were selected among the members of open golf practice fields in 2007, located in Seoul and Gyeonggi, and samples were drawn up with stratified cluster random sampling, and total 300 were selected. Among 300 samples, sample data, used in the real analysis, were 251(male 142, female 109).
First, 1 hour 30minutes in the intensity of golf participation, 3-4 times in the participation frequency, and 1-3 year in the participation period were the most. Female was higher than male in the participation frequency of gender, while male was higher than female in the participation period(p<.05). In addition, in the existence and non existence of marriage, the single was higher in the participation intensity, while the married was longer in the participation period(p<.05). In the age, participation period of 40s was longer than other ages, and in the monthly income, the participation intensity of high income group was significantly high(p<.05). However, there was no significant difference in the golf participation(p>.05).
Second, It appeared that participation frequency (β=.111, p<.01)that is the subordinate factor of golf participation affected the wellness Quotient and the social health area (β=.058, p<.050) the most. In the meanwhile, golf participation accounts for about 5.6%, among all variables of physical health area, which is the subordinate variable of wellness, and about 1.9% of social health area.
