Sisällön kuvaus

This survey studied voluntary work in Finland. The data were collected by Taloustutkimus and the study was commissioned by Kansalaisareena (Citizen Forum). First, the study charted how many hours the respondents had spent within the previous four weeks on voluntary work in different fields (e.g. social welfare and health care, sports, children and youth, culture, immigrants). Additionally, the study surveyed the types of tasks included in the voluntary work (e.g. group instruction, cleaning, fundraising, administrative and educational tasks, providing peer support).

The survey also charted the respondents' opinions with regard to a set of attitudinal statements concerning, for example, whether more training and support should be available for voluntary work, whether the respondents would be interested in trying voluntary work during work time or as part of studies if a possibility was given for this, and whether the respondents thought there should be a comprehensive search engine on the Internet designed to find voluntary work.

Background variables included, among others, gender, age, economic activity and occupational status, marital status, household composition, number of children under 18 living at home and their ages, income of the household, education, type of accommodation, political party preference, and regional variables such as NUTS3 region, number of inhabitants in R's municipality of residence, and type of the municipality (urban, semi-urban, rural).

Otantamenetelmä

Non-probability: Quota

The interviews were conducted as part of Taloustutkimus' Omnibus face-to-face interviews conducted mainly at respondents' homes. The sampling method was a starting point system where a random address is selected as a starting point for the interviews. During data collection, approximately one thousand persons aged 15 - 74 residing in Finland were interviewed. The Finnish Population Information System was used to form quotas representative of the Finnish population according to gender, age, region of residence, and number of inhabitants in the respondent's municipality of residence.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

The data do not contain the questionnare.

To prevent identification of individuals, variable bv23 denoting municipality of residence as well as the variable denoting questionnare ID were removed. Variable bv23 denoting municipality of residence was reclassified as variable bv33 denoting statistical grouping of municipalities and variable bv31 denoting the largest cities in Finland.

Open-ended responses were removed by the researcher before archiving.

Painokertoimet

The data include a weight variable (paino) which weights the data to be representative of the target population in terms of gender, age, region of residence and number of persons living in the household.
