Abstract : Leisure activities are essential in the individual's pursuit of well-being and higher satisfaction with life. In the last few years, the event-based social networks and event-promoting services on Face-book, Couchsurfing etc., have seen a boosting use. Their users are looking for personalised experience but they are often overwhelmed with the number of available options. To overcome this issue, rec-ommender systems serve as users' personal guides. They exploit various techniques and types of influence (geographic, temporal, social, etc.). In this work, we investigate the impact of individu-als' psychological profiles on their selection of leisure activities. We describe a comprehensive user study that we have conducted and an associated collection that could be further exploited for the recommendation of leisure activities.
