Been thinking about psychosocial aspects of volunteering today. I wonder if this will become more of hot topic now that we are about to be subjected to "The Big Society"...Some (I think) interesting reading:
Morrow-Howell, N., Hong, S. -., & Tang, F. (2009). Who benefits from volunteering? variations in perceived benefits. Gerontologist, 49(1), 91-102.
Stukas, A. A., Worth, K. A., Clary, E. G., & Snyder, M. (2009). The matching of motivations to affordances in the volunteer environment: An index for assessing the impact of multiple matches on volunteer outcomes. Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly, 38(1), 5-28.
