Results show that high (versus low) NFCL youngsters engage more in leisure activities like fun shopping, while low (versus high) youngsters go more to pubs and parties, visit or host more friends and tend to practice more sports. Results are explained based on NFCL theory. Limitations and directions for future research are suggested.enConsumer BehaviourNeed for closure and Leisure for YoungstersPsychological Reports512131413282640
