Abstract
En este artículo se define el voluntariado como una conducta de ayuda planificada, relativamente importante y mantenida en el tiempo: diferenciable de las conductas de ayuda espontá neas. Se presenta una revisión de las diferencias de género en las conductas de ayuda y de las teorías explicativas. Para comprobar si existen diferencias en motivaciones autocentradas y heterocentradas se aplicó el cuestionario de motivaciones de Ornato y Snyder a una muestra de 112 voluntarios de la Comunidad de Madrid. Se comprobó que no existen diferencias en las motivaciones por género; sin embargo, se encuentran diferencias según la edad.
Volunteerism is defined in this article as an important and sustained helping behaviour that is actively and deliberately sough out. A review of gender differences in helping behaviour and the conceptual frameworks are presented. The empiric goal is to check if there were defferences between men and women in self-oriented and other oriented motivations to be volunteer. A sample of 112 volunteers answered to the Inventory of Motivations of AIDS Volunteerism. The results show that moti vations between men and women do not differ. However, sorne differences have appeared depending on age.
