Les caractéristiques distinctives des bénévoles actifs au Canada
Notes
A detailed statistical portrait of the estimated 7.5 million Canadians who gave more than the national median of 66 hours of their time as volunteers in 1997 was produced using logistic regression techniques applied to a data file containing 18,301 cases from Canada's 1997 National Survey of Giving, Volunteering, and Participating. At the national level, the key characteristics that universally sets active volunteers apart from others is their high level of involvement in a variety of other forms of contributing and participating such as charitable giving, informal volunteering, social activity, and civic participation. They are also likely to have an above-average education and occupation, and to have children under the age of 17 in a larger than average household. The study also reveals how active volunteers have different patterns of distinctive characteristics in different regions and communities of different size across the country"This report was also published in the Nonprofit and voluntary sector quarterly, vol. 29, no. 4, December 2000" -- t.p.http://www.statcan.ca/english/research/75F0048MIE/75F0048MIE2002008.pdf
