Abstract
This research study was to measure the effect of family structure on high-school students’ stress and enthusiasm in learning via tourism questionnaire. The questionnaire was designed to collect the students’ opinions in regards to leisure-travelling and information regarding the students’ family structure which in our study was classified into two types: nuclear family and non-nuclear family in the context of Thailand. Binary logistic regression and the Statistical Package of the Social Sciences (SPSS) were selected as a tool to perform statistical analysis. The binary logistic regression model analysis revealed that students who live with nuclear families tend to be more eager in learning outside of the classroom during their leisure-travel time. On the other hand, students who live with non-nuclear families were more likely to be stressed in general resulting in the desire for an escape from studying and the need and/or physical mental relaxation.
