Özet:

 

A natural field experiment is designed to explore the impacts of social distance
 and network flow on other-regarding behaviors. A greater degree of
 communication between the voluntary organization and volunteers was found to
 reduce their social distance and thereby improve volunteering commitment. The
 improvement was even more notable if the party initiating communication was the
 voluntary organization. Two other practical means of lessening social distance
 were for volunteers to learn more about other volunteers, and for information to
 be dispersed throughout the organization more rapidly. Additionally, this study
 shows a reversed “U-shaped” relationship between network flow and volunteering
 commitment.
