Second, the connection centrality values of the current and desired leisure spaces based on the leisure learning attitudes showed that the distribution was more diverse with the desired than with the current spaces, but the concentration was stronger with the current spaces. This shows that there were differences in the casino employees’ present and desired leisure activities and spaces based on their leisure learning attitudes, as well as showing a circular relationship between the leisure learning attitudes, leisure activities, and leisure spaces; the differences between the employees’ present and desired leisure activities and spaces could be visualized through network analysis from the perspective of their attitudes.
