| Zusammenfassung: | This study examines the changes in leisure attitudes and behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic and their effect on mental health. It identifies the mediating role of leisure behavior in the relationship between leisure attitudes and mental health. The data were analyzed using PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling) based on two online surveys conducted one year apart, involving 287 residents of the Seoul metropolitan area. The results indicate that both the current state and temporal changes in leisure attitudes and behaviors significantly influence mental health during the prolonged pandemic. While leisure attitudes have a direct positive effect on mental health, their indirect effect through leisure behavior is negative, as increased leisure behavior may adversely affect mental health. The findings suggest that the changes in leisure attitudes and behaviors are crucial factors in either promoting or undermining mental health during a pandemic. This study emphasizes the importance of considering the changes in leisure attitudes and behaviors over time and their status at a given time during the pandemic to better understand their impact on mental health.
