MOTIVES OF PARTICIPATION AND ATTITUDES OF SCIENTIFIC VOLUNTEERS

This article presents the study of the attitudes of scientific volunteers through cognitive, emotive and behavioral components. As part of the cognitive component, participants' ideas about scientific volunteering and associations with it are described. The study of the emotive component demonstrates what feelings and emotions scientific volunteers experience when engaged in this activity. In turn, the behavioral component reveals the experience of scientific volunteers, the specifics and focus of civil science projects. The motives of participation in scientific and volunteer activities are also described, which are classified within the framework of the Schutz typology, namely the in-order-to and because motives. The paper considers the socio-cultural characteristics of scientific volunteers. A number of recommendations are proposed to increase the effectiveness of attracting people to scientific and volunteer activities.
