A psychological strategy for understanding the motivational underpinnings of volunteerism is described. In a presentation that merges the theoretical interests of researchers with the practical interests of volunteer administrators, six different motivational functions served by volunteerism are identified, and an inventory designed to measure these motivations is presented. The implications of this functional approach for the recruitment, placement, and retention of volunteers are then elaborated. Finally, recommendations are provided for volunteer administrators who seek to increase the number of people who volunteer and to improve their human resource management.
本文描述了一种理解志愿服务动机基础的心理策略。在一场融合了研究人员理论兴趣与志愿者管理人员实际兴趣的演讲中，确定了志愿服务所发挥的六种不同动机功能，并展示了一个旨在衡量这些动机的量表。接着阐述了这种功能方法对志愿者招募、安置和留存的影响。最后，为那些寻求增加志愿者人数并改善其人力资源管理的志愿者管理人员提供了建议。
