“…holidays are widely seen as a “necessary” part of contemporary life” (Smith and Hughes, 1999, p. 124). Smith and Hughes discuss this quote in their study Disadvantaged Families and the Meaning of the Holidays and discover the importance families place on the holidays.

Specifically psychology and how body image and cyberbullying can impact leisure participation, as well as sociology, which provides insight into leisure and social class by gender.

By applying the disciplines of psychology and sociology to the hypothetical study, we can help explain the persistent inequality that physically disabled youth experience in today's society when participating in leisure activities. The 5 young people taking part in this trip to Melbourne are all women with physical disabilities. and are aged 18 to 23. The girls will arrive in Melbourne where they will be taken to their hotel in the CBD to settle in and explore the hotel facilities. In the afternoon, the girls go to watch the Melbourne Victory Soccer team. On the second day, the girls will take a guided tour of Melbourne where they will visit all of Melbourne's iconic landmarks and take lots of photos which they will share with family and friends via Facebook.
