We are designed to investigate the effects of inline skating participation levels on leisure attitude and perceived fun among adults. Inline skating has become a growing leisure activity that contributes to physical health, enjoyment, and psychological well-being; however, empirical evidence on how participation levels shape leisure cognition and emotional responses remains limited. To address this research gap, adults aged 20 years and older who engaged in inline skating activities in Gwangju Metropolitan City and the Jeolla region in 2023 were recruited. Using a cluster random sampling method, 400 participants (285 males and 115 females) were selected. The survey instrument was adapted from previously validated questionnaires, updated to suit the study purpose, and all items were rated on a five-point Likert scale. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 with appropriate statistical procedures. The results demonstrated three key effects. First, inline skating participation level had a partial influence on leisure attitude. Second, participation level also exerted a partial effect on perceived fun. Third, leisure attitude partially contributed to perceived fun, suggesting that positive leisure attitudes enhance the enjoyment experienced during participation.
