本研究的主要目的是在探討休閒網球運動者運動熱情與運動依賴之相關，以及不同程度的運動依賴者在調和式熱情與強迫式熱情上的差異情形。本研究參與者為來自台北市多個網球俱樂部的網球健身運動者103人，其中包括男性81人，女性22人，平均年齡為43.82歲，平均球齡為14.26年，平均一週從事網球運動3.79次。研究方法採用調查法，經參與者填寫同意書後，請參與者填寫一份量表，測量參與者對網球的運動熱情與對網球運動的依賴程度。研究結果顯示：1.運動依賴的總分與兩種熱情都有顯著的正相關，但是與強迫式熱情的相關較高。2.不同程度的運動依賴者在強迫式熱情上有顯著差異，但在調和式熱情上則沒有。高運動依賴組在強迫式熱情上的得分高於低依賴組。結論：休閒網球運動者的強迫式熱情與調合式熱情均與運動依賴有正向的關聯，其中，強迫式熱情與運動依賴的關連性較高。

This study investigated the relationship between passion and dependence among recreational tennis players as well as the differences between exercise dependence at high-or low-level and harmonious-passion and obsessive-passion players. The participants were 103 recreational tennis players (81 males, 22 females) recruited from six different tennis clubs in Taipei. The average age was 48.32 years old, the average tennis playing year was 14.26 years, and the average tennis playing frequency was 3.79 times a week. With the participants' agreement, they filled a questionnaire to examine the level of passion for and addiction to tennis. There were two results from this study. First, there was a positive correlation between the total scores of the addiction and each of the two sorts of passion, but there was a higher correlation between the total scores of the addiction and the obsessive passion. Second, there were significant differences between high or low-level of exercise dependence and the obsessive passion only. The conclusion from this study was that there were positive correlations between harmonious passion, obsessive passion and dependence among recreational tennis players, and there were a higher correlation between the obsessive passion and the exercise dependence.
