Its objectives were to find the relationship between self-concept, self-efficacy, work motivation, self-motivation, gender, designation and attitude towards leisure among lecturers in public universities in Rivers State. The study adopted a combination of correlational and analytic survey designs. The population of the study is 2779 lecturers in public universities in Rivers State from whom a sample of 798 lecturers was drawn using proportionate stratified random sampling and purposive sampling techniques. The instrument for data collection is Psycho-Demographic Variables Questionnaire. Its reliability was obtained using Cronbach alpha technique and it ranged from 0.63-0.77. Data obtained from the instrument were analyzed using mean, independent sample t-test, simple and multiple regression techniques. Some of the findings made in this study include; self-concept and self-efficacy have a positive and significant relationship with attitude towards leisure; work motivation and self-motivation each has a negative and significant relationship with attitude towards leisure; female lecturers have a greater mean attitude towards leisure than their male counterparts and the difference in mean is significant at 0.05 probability level. It was therefore recommended that lecturers should find time to relax even when there is high work motivation and self-motivation so as to devote some time for leisure for optimum productivity.
