Abstract
El objetivo de la presente investigación es estudiar la relación existente entre las variables sociodemográficas y la permanencia de distintos tipos de voluntariado, y analizar la posible influencia de la edad en dicha relación. Para ello un total de 419 voluntarios contestaron a un cuestionario y participaron en dos seguimientos telefónicos a los seis meses y al año. Los resultados muestran que la edad modificaba la significación de las diferencias halladas y que a pesar de encontrarse discrepancias concretas en función del tipo de voluntariado, se pueden identificar una serie de tendencias generales respecto al papel de las variables sociodemográficas en la permanencia de los voluntarios: los voluntarios varones, de edad media, empleados a jornada completa y casados tienden a permanecer durante más tiempo en las organizaciones estudiadas. En algunos casos las relaciones entre la permanencia y las variables sociodemográficas tienen un carácter no lineal.
The first purpose of this study is to research the relationship between background profile and duration of sustained volunteerism in different types of volunteerism, and to analyse age’s influence in this relationship. 419 volunteers completed a questionnaire and after two telephone follow-ups were carried out to determine whether volunteers remained in the NGO. The results show that age changes the significance of found differences and there are general trends about the relationship between background profile and sustained volunteerism: the male volunteers, married, with middle age and full day tend to stay more time. Sometimes the relationships between sustained volunteerism and several variables aren’t linear.
