本論文旨在瞭解台中市居民休閒參與、社會資本及主觀幸福感之現況；接著探討台中市居民的背景資料與休閒參與、社會資本及主觀幸福感之關係；進而建構並驗證「休閒參與、社會資本及主觀幸福感模式」，以瞭解休閒參與、社會資本對主觀幸福感的影響。
研究採問卷調查的方式，共獲得有效問卷403份。經回顧相關理論並運用結構方程模式及相關的統計分析後，結果顯示：
一、台中市居民的婚姻狀況、年齡、職業、教育程度、個人月收入及自陳健康狀況在休閒參與、社會資本及主觀幸福感等部份構念上有顯著的差異。
二、本研究之「休閒參與、社會資本及主觀幸福感」，整體適配度普通(GFI=0.93, RMSEA=0.082, CFI=0.96，PNFI=0.73)，綜合評估三種適配指標，本研究之適配度達可接受範圍。由模式得知休閒參與、社會資本皆正向且顯著地影響主觀幸福感(γ=0.21,β=0.73)；休閒參與也正向且顯著地影響社會資本(γ=0.39)。
根據以上結果對台中市政府相關單位提出如何提高休閒參與率，增加人際互動的機會，以促進居民的社會資本與幸福感等建議，並對後續研究提出具體建議。

The purpose of this research was to establish a conceptual model of leisure participation, social capital and subjective well-being. The specific objectives were as follows: 1. to understand the Taichung city residents’ leisure participation, social capital and subjective well-being; 2. to explore the relationships among residents’ socio-demographic characters, leisure participation, social capital and subjective well-being; 3. to construct and validate the structural model among leisure participation, social capital and subjective well-being and then to examine the causal relationships among leisure participation, social capital and subjective well-being.
A total of 403 valid questionnaires were collected through face-to-face survey from residents who live in the Taichung city. Establishing from the previous literature, we tested the conceptual model and found that leisure participation and social capital are antecedents of residents’ subjective well-being.
Based on the research findings, there were significant differences among residents’ social-demographic characteristics, leisure participation, social capital and subjective well-being. Furthermore, the variables of residents’ marriage status, age, occupation, education, family monthly income, self-rated health showed significant variance in leisure participation, social capital and subjective well-being.
The overall modified model was moderate fit the data (GFI=0.93, RMSEA=0.082, CFI=0.96, PNFI=0.73). After conducting the Structural Equation Modeling, the results showed that the residents’ leisure participation and social capital positively and significantly influenced subjective well-being. (γ=0.21,β=0.73); their leisure participtation also positively and significantly influenced social capital. (γ=0.39). Based on the findings of this study, some suggestions are proposed for local government authority providing adequate leisure facilities and meeting places.
Therefore, the residents can have more chance to participate leisure activities, and enhence interpersonal interaction. Finally, the recommendations for future research were also discussed.
