Resumo: The purpose was to analyze the potential differences in the motivation factors of volunteers according to the demographics; sex, level of education, and type of events in Brazil. The Volunteer Motivations Scale for International Sporting Events was administered to Brazilian volunteers via an online survey. Back-translation was used to ensure accuracy between the original scales. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to perform the transcultural adaptation. MANOVA was utilized to compare differences in demographic variables. Volunteers were motivated by two factors: Love of Sports and Community Involvement. The level of education verified significant differences only in the love of sport factor. The MANOVA revealed that the volunteers with a lower level of schooling (incomplete and elementary school) have higher levels of motivation (love for sport) compared to volunteers with high school, undergraduate, master's and PhD degrees. The interaction between sex and level of education indicated a significant difference in the same factor, and the interaction sex and type of event with the factor Community Involvement. Therefore, the results identify some differences in demographics. It is concluded that Volunteers' motivation is linked to the love of sport and involvement with the community and is related to sex and schooling, highlighting the importance of investigating volunteer motivations amongst sports events to promote positive development in management practices, specially to Brazilian sports events.

A Escala de Motivação de Voluntários para Eventos Esportivos Internacionais foi aplicada a voluntários brasileiros por meio de um questionário online. A retrotradução foi usada para garantir a precisão entre as escalas originais. A análise fatorial confirmatória foi utilizada para realizar a adaptação transcultural. MANOVA foi utilizada para comparar diferenças nas variáveis demográficas. Os voluntários foram motivados por dois fatores: Amor ao Esporte e Envolvimento Comunitário. O nível de escolaridade verificou diferenças significativas apenas no fator amor ao esporte. A MANOVA revelou que os voluntários com menor escolaridade (escola primaria e incompleta) possuem níveis de motivação (amor ao esporte) maiores comparado aos voluntários com ensino médio, graduação, mestrado e doutorado. A interação entre sexo e escolaridade indicou diferença significativa no mesmo fator, e a interação sexo e tipo de evento com o fator Envolvimento na Comunidade. Portanto, os resultados identificam algumas diferenças demográficas. Conclui-se que a motivação dos voluntários está atrelada ao amor ao esporte e envolvimento com a comunidade e possui relações com sexo e escolaridade, destacando a importância de investigar as motivações do voluntariado entre os eventos esportivos para promover o desenvolvimento positivo das práticas de gestão, especialmente dos eventos esportivos brasileiros.Department of Physical Education - State University of Maringá (UEM), Maringá-PR, Brazil2022-05-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/RevEducFis/article/view/5833710.4025/jphyseduc.v33i1.3337Journal of Physical Education; Vol 33 No 1 (2022): Journal of Physical Education; e-3337Journal of Physical Education; Vol. 33 Núm. 1 (2022): Journal of Physical Education; e-3337Journal of Physical Education; v. 33 n. 1 (2022): Journal of Physical Education; e-33372448-2455reponame:Revista da Educação física/UEM (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Maringá (UEM)instacron:UEMenghttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/RevEducFis/article/view/58337/751375154222Copyright (c) 2022 Journal of Physical Educationhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBavaresco, GustavoSantos, ThiagoMezzadri, Fernando MarinhoCarvalho, Maria José2023-08-04T19:23:26Zoai:periodicos.uem.br/ojs:article/58337Revistahttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/RevEducFis/PUBhttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/RevEducFis/oai||revdef@uem.br1983-30830103-3948opendoar:2023-08-04T19:23:26Revista da Educação física/UEM (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Maringá (UEM)false
