Leisure is an important tool for societies to develop a sense of integration and improve the skills of self-determined individuals. Although, the relationship between leisure and self-determination is widely studied, the relations between leisure constraints, isolation and self-determination are not studied sufficiently. Therefore, this study investigates the relationship between leisure constraints, social isolation and self-determination. The study has been conducted in Ahlat (Bitlis-Turkiye) with 248 sample group. The results have been analysed with SmartPLS which is a widely-used statistical software to test structural equation models. The result of the study reveals that there is a positive relationship between structural constraints of leisure and social isolation, and social isolation with self-determination. As metioned in this study leisure seems to be an important variable of socialization process and self determination. Therefore, it is strongly suggested that destinations should maintain various kinds of leisure facilities and encourage the residents to engage in these activities.

Rekreasyon, toplumların bütünleşme duygusu geliştirmesi ve kendi kaderini tayin eden bireylerin becerilerini geliştirmesi için önemli bir araçtır. Alan yazında rekreasyon ve kendi kaderini tayin arasındaki ilişki geniş çapta çalışılmasına rağmen, rekreasyon kısıtlamaları, izolasyon ve kendi kaderini tayin arasındaki ilişkiler yeterince çalışılmamıştır. Bu nedenle, bu çalışma rekreasyon kısıtlamaları, sosyal izolasyon ve kendi kaderini tayin etme arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktadır. Çalışma Ahlat ilinde 248 örneklem grubu ile yürütülmüştür. Sonuçlar, yapısal eşitlik modelleri için önemli bir istatistiksel program olan SMARTPLS ile analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucu, rekreasyonun yapısal kısıtlamaları ile sosyal izolasyon arasında, ve sosyal izolasyon ile kendi kaderini tayin etme arasında bir ilişki olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Bu nedenle destinasyonların rekreasyonel tesislere sahip olması ve bölge sakinlerini faaliyetlere katılmaya teşvik etmesi kuvvetle önerilmektedir.
