Education for Citizenship: A Study of the Effects of Cocurricular Student Philanthropy Education on Prosocial Behavior

Abstract Details

2022, Ph.D., Antioch University, Leadership and Change.
The purpose of this concurrent mixed-methods study is to explore the use of student engagement and cocurricular student philanthropy education as an approach to awareness raising and as a mechanism for creating a culture of philanthropy among college students. This dissertation is a synthesis of the review with a consensus that student engagement and cocurricular student philanthropy education create greater awareness, learning, and intentions around philanthropy and prosocial behavior, as well as increased instances of making charitable contributions and civic engagement. The study concludes that student engagement and cocurricular philanthropy education are effective mechanisms for creating a culture of giving. Therefore, emerging from this study is a call for college and universities to consider the use of cocurricular student philanthropy education as an approach to life-long engagement and giving. This dissertation is available in open access at AURA (https://aura.antioch.edu) and OhioLINK ETD Center, (https://etd.ohiolink.edu).
