“…Cooperative behavior involves the interaction of two or more people who work together towards a common goal, with mutual benefits for everyone ( Gutiérrez-Roig et al, 2014 ; Nava et al, 2023 ). Some studies have suggested that the tendency to show cooperative behaviors could change with age ( Garaigordobil and García de Galdeano, 2006 ; Gilar Corbi et al, 2008 ; Eisenberg et al, 2010 ; Belli et al, 2012 ; Smith et al, 2013 ; Gutiérrez-Roig et al, 2014 ; Keil et al, 2017 ; Taheri et al, 2018 ; Castellano Navarro et al, 2019 ; Zhang et al, 2019 ; Nava et al, 2023 ). In this direction, adolescents show a higher tendency to cooperate than children ( Fuentes and Fernández, 1993 ; Gutiérrez-Roig et al, 2014 ; Keil et al, 2017 ; Castellano Navarro et al, 2019 ), while adults show more cooperative behaviors than adolescents ( Belli et al, 2012 ; Taheri et al, 2018 ; Zhang et al, 2019 ; Nava et al, 2023 ).…”
