“…The 'Oshin' character becomes a positive role model for the audience and illustrates how they could learn about prosocial values through the drama. Wallbank's [32] study also highlights the media model 'Robin Hood' in the discussion on the comparison between the antisocial and prosocial behaviour.…”

Prosocial value can be associated with the positive behaviours that are commonly practised in the socio-surrounding of a civilised community, for example, the action of helping, loving and developing empathy with each other. The formation of the prosocial behaviour also has a connection with one's self-efficacy. The individual's mastery of his or her self-efficacy can contribute to the differences in how he or she is behaving. All of the ethical values in every religion explain life as revolving around helping one another and living peacefully in society. The effort of helping based on the concerns towards other people could be the motivational factors that are closely related to the prosocial behaviour. Having positive personality traits and then backed with a sound religious belief ingrain the necessary moral compass that guides a person into behaving in ways that are considered society-friendly. Meanwhile, media roles depending on the content are capable of propagating decent values among the larger mass. Generally speaking, these factors are sufficient in educating and nurturing normal individuals to attain better selfefficacy. However, on an earnest ground considering individuals who suffer from a low level of self-efficacy, which resulted in antisocial behaviour, a more structured and empirical psychological intervention needs to be administered.

“…It should be noted that while risky behavior can have many positive correlates (e.g., courage, heroism, and volunteering, Booth, Johnson, & Granger, 1999;Muris, 2009;Raine, Reynolds, Venables, Mednick, 2002;Raine et al, 2002;Wallbank, 1985), engaging in high risk behavior can have disadvantages as well (Bray et al, 2008;Gimbel & Booth, 1996;Kaplan & Gangestad, 2005;Miller, Lynam, & Leukefeld 2003;Widiger 2005). Military service arguably can be a disadvantageous life strategy because there is heightened risk of injury or death.…”

Experiences in the military may impact dual‐axis neuroendocrine processes in veterans

Military stressors such as survival training can affect endocrine functioning in the short term, and combat has been associated with endocrine changes linked to psychopathology. However, studies with military samples examining whether there are individual differences in these changes as part of normal development, or as an adaptive mechanism in adulthood are lacking. This study examined whether exposure to combat in a sample of veterans was associated with differential endocrine activity to a laboratory frustration task. Results indicated that Army veterans demonstrated significant testosterone reactivity to frustration and negative coupling between cortisol and testosterone. Alternatively, Navy and Marine veterans demonstrated little testosterone reactivity to frustration and positive coupling between cortisol and testosterone. Positive cortisol-testosterone coupling was stronger among individuals who had more dangerous combat experiences. This latter pattern may better prepare individuals for stressful life experiences and supports the contention that adulthood stressors may calibrate endocrine systems. Results are explained in the context of the Adaptive Calibration Model (Ellis et al., 2012, Developmental Psychology, 48(3), 598-623) which proposes that exposure to key environmental dimensions during endocrinologically malleable life stages (e.g., puberty) can change stress responsivity, resulting in a faster life history trajectory (e.g., increased risk-taking and aggression).
