| Abstract: | This paper, based on Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) data, analyzes the relation between volunteering
and well-being among 30,023 Europeans aged 50 and above in 12 countries. There is an overall positive correlation between
volunteering and perceived health, life satisfaction, and self-life expectancy and a negative correlation to depression. However,
in some countries the correlation is much stronger than in others. |
