A Survey of Leisure Activities Engaged in by Adults Who Are Severely Retarded Living in Different Residence and Community Types.
Aveno, Arlene
Education and Training in Mental Retardation, v22 n2 p121-27 Jun 1987
Group homes and foster homes (N=436) rated the frequency with which their severely retarded residents engaged in 20 leisure activities. Group home residents engaged in 60% of the activities more often than foster home residents, although some leisure activities appeared to be generic across different living and community situations.
