Introduction: The Taipei 2017 Universiade was held and concluded successfully. The volunteers who participated in this event received praise from all levels of society and were the heroes behind the success of this championship. However, it is worthwhile to understand and explore the underlying reasons that stimulated volunteers to proactively participate in this championship. The objective of this research is to understand the overall structural relationship between volunteers' value-based identity, organizational trust, and psychological contract, and to test whether organizational trust plays a mediating role. Hopefully, the findings from this research will be useful for a perfect idea to improve volunteers' value-based identity, organizational trust, and psychological contract. This also can help sport volunteers' to improve their participation motivation in related works, and organizational human resources management effectiveness. Methods: Cross-comparison using search theory between individual interviews was conducted for construction of preliminary indicators, followed by in-depth interviews with 3 subjects, group discussions with 3 subjects, exploratory factor analysis of 204 subjects, confirmatory factor analysis of 217 subjects, and overall model verification of 374 subjects. Finally, the multi-group (gender, category) model was adopted to verify two groups with 400 individuals in each group. Results: The construction of qualitative indicators in the initial stage was completed. The Goodness of Fit of the overall structured model was favorable. Volunteers' value-based identity was found to influence organizational trust and further affect psychological contract. The effect was 0.34. Organizational trust displayed a partial mediating effect. In addition, both the gender group and the category group entailed congruence. The model can be accepted. Conclusion: Whether they are male, female, student volunteers, or social volunteers, all individuals highly affirm the value of sport events on account of value-based identity and trust in the organization, producing an intangible psychological contract so that they are intrinsically motivated to proactively partake, invest time and effort, and cooperate with sport events. |
