Increasing prosocial behavior and decreasing selfishness in the lab and everyday life

A. T. Gloster, M. T. B. Rinner, et al.

This intriguing study by Andrew T. Gloster, Marcia T. B. Rinner, and Andrea H. Meyer explores how a brief psychological micro-intervention can significantly boost prosocial behavior and decrease selfishness among couples. With remarkable results showing a 28% rise in altruism and a 35% drop in selfish actions, the findings highlight the potential for short interventions to foster kindness in everyday life.
