Item The Effects of Race, Gender, and Marital Status on Giving and Volunteering in Indiana(2006-12) Mesch, Debra; Rooney, Patrick; Steinberg, Kathryn; Denton, BrianThe purpose of this study is to examine the effects of race, gender, and marital status on giving and volunteering behavior. A second purpose is to examine these effects across different survey methodologies. Using data from Indiana households, a multimethod, multigroup research design was used to compare giving and volunteering across eight different survey methodologies. Results indicate important differences in philanthropic behaviors by gender, race, marital status, and survey methodology—even when controlling for differences in income, age, and educational attainment. These results highlight the importance of looking specifically at human and social capital variables, and survey methodology, when making assumptions about and interpreting the measurement of philanthropic behavior.Item The Effects of Race, Gender, and Survey Methodologies on Giving in the US(2003-05-16) Rooney, Patrick; Mesch, Debra; Chin, William; Steinberg, KathrynThis study examines the effects of race and gender on philanthropy and interaction effects between race or gender and survey methodologies. Results indicate differences in philanthropic behaviors by gender but not by race. We also find significant interaction effects between survey methodologies and race and gender, which may have important implications for social science research in which race and/or gender explain or predict behaviors.Item Measurement of Volunteering: A Methodological Study Using Indiana as a Test Case(2002-12) Rooney, Patrick; Steinberg, Kathryn; Chin, WilliamItem Methodologies Used to Develop Estimates of the Sources of Giving and Contributions by Type of Recipient in Giving USA 2001 for Charitable Contributions in 2000(2002-09) Brown, Melissa; Rooney, Patrick; Steinberg, Kathryn
