Abstract: | The role of work and leisure is investigated in the daily life of two groups of professionals, whose work outcomes affect the wellbeing, survival and development of other individuals, at both the biological and cultural levels: physicians and teachers. The relationship between work and leisure activities and optimal experience, characterized by engagement, enjoyment and intrinsic motivation, was investigated by means of the flow questionnaire, assessing the occurrence of optimal experience in participants' lives, its psychological features and associated activities. |
