College students-centered voluntary activity has accumulated a long and historical experience and has an endless potential and possibility due to diverse human resources which have a great ability. So, the activation of voluntary activity through a more systematic and professional management should be promoted.
The purpose of this study lies with diagnosing the voluntary activity of the current college students and seeking the efficient voluntary activity of the college students by grasping the participation motivation and satisfaction of the college students.
I surveyed the college students who attend to the 3 regular 4-year-course colleges situated at Gyungju, North Gyongsang Province and in conducting the survey, I visited the persons concerned in each college to fully explain the gist of the survey and cooperate with them, distributing and collecting the questionnaires to and from those persons.
In short, the conclusion analyzed is as follows:
First, for a participation motivation, the biggest motivation for participating in a voluntary activity was to make use of spare time, followed by social relationship, material compensation, ideology and altruism in order.
Second, with regard to the satisfaction of the college students who had an experience of participating in voluntary activities, most of the students surveyed gave a biggest score in the "the opportunity of being able to learn the new experience or thing" item.
Third, in the motivation of participating in the voluntary activity which has an impact on the satisfaction of the voluntary activity, the motivation for making use of spare or extra time was found to be the strongest influence factor, followed by compensation for status, altruism, material compensation, social relationship and ideology in order.
Fourth, for the most required thing to activate voluntary activities, it was found to be an improvement in voluntary activity spirit of the student.
Synthetically, the students who had an experience of attending a welfare subject class took part in the voluntary activity more frequently and showed a stronger participation motivation. Further the satisfaction in the voluntary activity was higher. Both the students who took a curriculum course in voluntary activity and the students who had an experience in club activity showed a higher participation as well as a stronger participation motivation. The stronger and more positive participation motivation was, the higher satisfaction was. As a more positive and active motivation in voluntary activity results in the higher satisfaction in the voluntary activity, the newly establishment of the voluntary activity-related subjects and intensification of credits in the said subjects as well as the emphasis on the voluntary activity as a part of the regular events of the college would strengthen the college students's voluntary activity and subsequently the satisfaction would be also higher.
