As an important part of daily life, leisure activities play an irreplaceable role, since the early 1980s, the study of constraints on leisure activities has become an important topic in the field of foreign leisure research, while domestic academic research on leisure constraints lags behind, and there are fewer research results, to this end, this paper summarizes and analyzes the development history, research content of domestic and foreign leisure constraints research. For this reason, this paper combs, summarizes and analyzes the development history, research content of domestic and foreign leisure constraints research, aiming to provide reference for domestic leisure constraints research.
