The bar chart provides information about how many hours were spent on one day participating in leisure and sports activities between the youngest and oldest populations in 2015.
Overall, the oldest group generally spent much more time engaging in passive activities like watching TV, reading, relaxing, and thinking, while socializing, communicating, and playing games/using computers for leisure, as well as outdoor activities like sport, exercise, and recreation, was more common among the youth. The greatest gap was seen in the category of watching TV, whereas there was no difference between the youth and seminar group in the category of socializing and communicating.
Looking first at passive activities, watching TV remains at the top ranking for the oldest group, at 4.5 hours, while the youngest group spends less time, at 2.4 hours. Subsequently, while older people spend 1 hour reading and 0.6 hours relaxing and thinking, the figure for the 15-19 age group is at a lower level, at 0.2 and 0.1 hours respectively.
Regarding the remaining activities, which were more common in the youngest group, computer use was the second most common activity for this group, at 1.1 hours, which was roughly double that of those in the seminar group. Similarly, outdoor activities including sport, exercise, and recreation allocate 0.6 hours every day for the youngest group, which is triple the figure for those in the seminar group. For socializing and communicating, it hovers around 0.7-0.8 hours each day among the two groups.
