Few studies, however, have examined the recreational interests of Black undergraduate students attending four-year colleges and universities. As part of a study comparing recreational preferences of Black and White students attending historically White institutions, 150 Black and 154 White undergraduate students were surveyed related to their interest in 27 recreational activities. Significant differences existed in several categories, but overall interest in outdoor recreation among Black undergraduate students was higher than expected, compared to prior literature. Moreover, findings were notable in several sport activities when comparing gender differences. Results support the notion that social, psychological, and institutional barriers exist that limit recreational involvement for certain groups. Findings may be useful for collegiate recreation professionals looking to promote sport and outdoor opportunities for undergraduate students of color on college campuses in the U.S.}, number={1}, journal={RECREATIONAL SPORTS JOURNAL}, author={Howard, Keith and Bocarro, Jason N. and Floyd, Myron F. and Sanderson, Heather}, year={2022}, month={Apr}, pages={52–63} }

Logistic and multiple regressions were run to explore the relationship between total recreation contact hours and outcome variables. Results indicated a positive and significant relationship between contact hours and all outcome variables, even when controlling for demographic and precollege characteristics.}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF STUDENT AFFAIRS RESEARCH AND PRACTICE}, author={Sanderson, Heather and DeRousie, Jason and Guistwite, Nicole}, year={2018}, pages={40–53} }
