Based on the responses of 5,946 adolescents (mean age = 14.77), the relationships among family influence, adolescents' volunteering intention, and volunteering behavior in a Chinese context were examined. A 9-item Chinese Family Influence on Adolescent Volunteerism Scale (C-FIAV) was used to measure nine kinds of influence of the family (such as family support) which could be subsumed under two underlying domains (positive family influence and extrinsic family influence). Results showed that family support, family belief, and family modeling were positively associated with both intention and behavior. Family reward and coercion were negatively associated with both intention and behavior. Family belief in volunteerism was the most critical factor. Grade and gender differences were found only in the associations between family influence and volunteering intention. Path models showed that positive and extrinsic family influence had an effect on volunteering behavior directly or via the mediation of volunteering intention. Implications and limitations are discussed.
基于5946名青少年(平均年龄 = 14.77岁)的回答,研究了在中国背景下家庭影响、青少年志愿服务意愿和志愿服务行为之间的关系。使用一个包含9个项目的中国家庭对青少年志愿服务影响量表(C-FIAV)来测量家庭的九种影响(如家庭支持),这些影响可归纳为两个潜在维度(积极家庭影响和外在家庭影响)。结果表明,家庭支持、家庭信念和家庭榜样与意愿和行为均呈正相关。家庭奖励和强制与意愿和行为均呈负相关。家庭对志愿服务的信念是最关键的因素。仅在家庭影响与志愿服务意愿的关联中发现了年级和性别差异。路径模型表明,积极和外在家庭影响直接或通过志愿服务意愿的中介作用对志愿服务行为产生影响。文中讨论了研究的意义和局限性。
