摘要

2019冠状病毒病大流行影响了个人自愿参与的方式,并因不同的限制而为参与设置了障碍。评估退伍军人如何志愿服务的研究是有限的,但军事文化可能有鼓励为他人服务的方面。作者调查了2019冠状病毒病大流行期间英国退伍军人的志愿服务情况,以及哪些因素使退伍军人或多或少更有可能志愿服务。研究发现,60%的退伍军人在过去的12个月里做过志愿者,这一水平与英国普通民众的水平相似。总的来说,退伍军人更多的是通过正式的组织而不是非正式的基础来做志愿者,比如帮助邻居等个人。然而,相对而言,在大流行期间,正式志愿服务水平下降,非正式志愿服务水平上升。如果退伍军人是军官,他们更有可能志愿服务;如果他们感到孤独,他们更有可能增加志愿服务。减少志愿服务的退伍军人更有可能出现心理健康问题。了解退伍军人的志愿活动可能会为他们提供更多的参与机会。

Volunteering behaviours among UK military Veterans during the COVID-19 pandemic and associations with health and well-being
LAY SUMMARY The COVID-19 pandemic influenced ways in which individuals volunteered and created barriers for participation because of differing restrictions. The research assessing how Veterans volunteer is limited, but there may be aspects of military culture that encourage service to others. The authors investigated volunteering among UK Veterans during the COVID-19 pandemic and what factors made Veterans more or less likely to volunteer. The study found that 60% of Veterans had volunteered in the past 12 months, a level similar to that among the UK general population. Overall, Veterans volunteered more often through formal organizations rather than on an informal basis, such as helping individuals such as neighbours. However, in relative terms, levels of formal volunteering decreased and levels of informal volunteering increased during the pandemic. Veterans were more likely to volunteer if they were officers or to increase volunteering if they felt lonely. Veterans who reduced volunteering were more likely to have mental health problems. Understanding volunteering among Veterans may open up more opportunities for participation.
