Resumo: This study examined gender differences in the beliefs of university students about volunteering. The investigations highlight the infl uence that stereotyped social roles, which are traditionally attributed to men and women, can exert on people’s beliefs and on the adoption of prosocial behaviors. A total of 303 students from the University of Lisbon and the Portuguese Catholic University participated in the study, and the Volunteer Functions Attitudes Questionnaire was used to collect data. The results of Analysis of Variance indicate that men value the instrumental function of volunteering as a source for professional development, and women highlight it as a framework for the expression of personal values. The analysis makes it possible to understand the students’ expectations of volunteering and how they can be met. It is important to rethink volunteering practices in order to foster non-sexist educational proposals to promote greater participation of men and women in different projects.

A literatura destaca a infl uência que os papéis sociais estereotipados podem exercer nas crenças das pessoas e na adoção de condutas pró-sociais. Participaram da pesquisa 303 estudantes da Universidade de Lisboa e da Universidade Católica Portuguesa, e foi utilizado o Questionário de Atitudes Face às Funções do Voluntariado para a coleta dos dados. Os resultados da Análise de Variância indicaram que os homens valorizam a função instrumental do voluntariado como fonte para o desenvolvimento profi ssional, enquanto as mulheres destacam-no como uma forma de expressão de seus valores pessoais. O sexo e a experiência são fatores diferenciadores das crenças. A análise possibilitou compreender quais as expectativas dos estudantes frente ao voluntariado e de que modo podem ser satisfeitas, bem como repensar as práticas, com vistas a fomentar propostas educacionais não sexistas para promover uma maior participação de homens e mulheres nos diferentes projetos.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-02-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7460Psychological Studies; Vol. 35 No. 3 (2018): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 35 Núm. 3 (2018): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 35 n. 3 (2018): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7460/5014Copyright (c) 2023 Adriana Yanina ORTIZhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessORTIZ, Adriana Yanina 2023-02-24T15:23:54Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7460Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2023-02-24T15:23:54Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
