Leisurely Motorcycle Riding: A Phenomenological study of the psychology of leisurely - 18 – motorcycle riding. personality types. It could also be tested by using a survey method to establish frequency of results for whether its just chance that the diction is used. For example, would feminine statements such as I prefer riding my bike leisurely because I like how she handles score higher versus I like how he handles. An improvement to this study could also occur through the participation of an additional researcher to cross-check the core qualities. While proper coding and processes are followed through this study, secondary analysis of the results could yield additional aspects of psychology that are present in the leisurely riding experience. Furthermore, a comprehensive analysis of a multitude of non-empirical (heuristic) publications about motorcycle riding could provide a more comprehensive and detailed description of the riding experience beyond these participants. In other words, through a meta-analysis of non-study based descriptions, further context could be created around the specific psychological themes that emerged from the data collected in this study without the extensive interview process of qualitative measures. Finally, given the vast multiple dimensions presented in the context of this study, future investigation in a multidimensional manner would be helpful. For example, adrenaline or rush never reached levels close to saturation in the testimonies. However, these might be common assumptions of riding experiences. Cross comparisons between riders and surveys could provide rather interesting and valuable information about the perceptions of both riders and non-riders regarding motivations for leisurely riding. Moreover, it could serve to develop more accurate components of leisurely riding as it relates to clinical needs by comparing data coding with surveyed results from multiple riders through a quantitative analysis of the coded themes. In summary, this appears to be the first step toward understanding the psychology of a leisurely motorcycle ride. The experience of riding cruisers conforms to multiple aspects of definitions related to leisurely activity. Moreover, the nature of the experience presents several possible aspects of psychology that may influence interaction between psychologists and patients who ride. At minimum, the study provides further evidence of the need for thick, rich, and multidimensional understanding of psychological processes within human experiences.
