Volunteering in adaptive sport: effects of altruistic and egoistic motivation on performance and sustained intention.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Adaptive sport events provide a unique volunteer setting emphasizing inclusion, accessibility, and individualized support for athletes with disabilities. Volunteers are essential not only to event operations but also to fostering a positive and empowering experience for athletes. Despite extensive research on sport volunteerism, studies focusing specifically on the adaptive sport context remain limited. This study explores how altruistic and egoistic motivations influence volunteers' in-role performance and their sustained intention in adaptive sport settings. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was administered to volunteers at the 2024 Korean-American Adaptive Sport Festival in Maryland, USA, using a convenience sampling method. A total of 212 valid responses were included in the analysis. To address the study's objectives, data were analyzed using frequency and descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), reliability testing, and multiple regression analysis. Results: The results indicate that Organization Attachment (OA), Volunteer Attachment (VA), and Internal Benefits (IB) had a positive effect on volunteers' in-role performance, while External Benefits (EB) showed no significant impact. Furthermore, VA and IB had a significant impact on volunteers' sustained intention to continue participating, whereas OA and EB showed no significant effect. Discussion: These findings offer valuable insights into volunteer motivation and its impact on in-role performance and continued engagement in adaptive sport settings. The study offers practical implications for building a more committed, capable, and sustainable volunteer workforce to support the continued success of adaptive sport programs.
