This research aimed to analyze the recreation specialization process by applying symbolic interaction theory in order to identify how recreation participants’ specialization proceeds forward in various directions and paths. For this purpose, previous studies on recreation specialization within the framework of process approach and the relationship between symbolic interaction theory and recreation specialization were reviewed. Data for this study were collected through in-depth interviews of ten campers and were later analyzed using a grounded theory approach. The study results showed 29 subcategories and 14 upper categories. The analysis showed that most campers do not follow a linear specialization trajectory. Findings indicated that campers’ specialization process was better characterized by stability (low and high) or decline. Also, campers’ specialization patterns progress to different paths with increased participation. Findings indicated both a “stability-seeking path” and a “diversity-seeking path.” The important thing is that these directions and various paths of recreation specialization are constantly changing.
