Furthermore, the researchers employed quantitative-correlational research design to determine the degree of the relationship between variables in the study. Multivariate regression analysis was also utilized to predict volunteer motivation on leadership styles. The researchers adapted two survey questionnaires: Volunteer Functions Inventory of Clary et al. (1998) and Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire 5x of Avolio and Bass (1995) as research instrument methodologies. Consequently, it has exhibited that there is a significant relationship between volunteer motivation and leadership styles. Positive correlation was found between the volunteer motivation and leadership styles. Hence, only the Protective and Values factor garnered a pvalue lesser than the significance level. The current study contributes markedly not only on future research endeavors but also on guiding higher learning institutions in tailoring programs that may strengthen volunteerism and leadership qualities among college learners.
