“…Descriptives and alpha reliabilities are presented in Table 1. Reliabilities are consistent to those obtained in the previous studies, including somewhat lower reliability for altruism and dire prosocial tendency, which are low, but still acceptable considering small number of items (e.g., Carlo and Randall, 2002;Carlo et al, 2003;Raine and Uh, 2019). Data and instruments could be found at https://osf.io/gdz42/.…”

“…In previous studies, it showed no significant correlation with altruism or with Big Five personality traits (e.g., Rodrigues et al, 2017). However, it was positively related to the aspects of both cognitive and affective empathy and global prosocial behavior, while it was negatively related to hedonistic prosocial moral reasoning (Carlo and Randall, 2002;Carlo et al, 2003;Rodrigues et al, 2017).…”

“…Altruism in the PTM refers to helping others when there is little or no perceived potential for a direct, explicit reward to the self (Carlo and Randall, 2002). It is negatively related to approval-oriented prosocial moral reasoning and personal distress and positively related to Agreeableness, but it is unrelated to indicators of empathy and global prosocial behavior (Carlo et al, 2003;Rodrigues et al, 2017). Thus, it seems that global empathic capacity could make the distinction between altruism and anonymous prosocial tendencies.…”

The aim of this study was to explore the effects of prosocial and antisocial personality tendencies and context-related state factors on compliance with protective behaviors to prevent the spread of coronavirus infections. Six types of prosocial tendencies (altruism, dire, compliant, emotional, public, and anonymous) and selfishness as the antisocial tendency were included as personality factors, while fear related to the pandemic and empathy toward vulnerable groups (i.e., those in forced isolation) were context-related factors. Furthermore, mediation effect of empathy and moderation effect of fear were explored in relations between personality factors and protective behaviors. The sample included 581 participants (78.3% females). The data were collected from March 28 to April 6, 2020, during the emergency state and curfew in Serbia. The results showed that tendency to help anonymously had a positive effect and selfishness had a negative effect on protective behaviors, over and above demographic characteristics and context-related factors. Among context-related factors, only fear related to the pandemic had a significant unique positive effect on protective behaviors, but it had no moderator effect in the relationship between personality traits and protective behaviors. However, empathy acted as a mediator and partly accounted for the negative effect of selfishness and positive effect of tendency to help anonymously on protective behaviors. The results revealed that compliance with protective measures could be seen as prosocial and unselfish form of behavior. Furthermore, these findings have practical implications for shaping public messages and they can help effectively promote health-responsible behaviors.

“…Such a wide definition of prosocial behaviors on SoMe today may be too wide as it may encapsulate inherently different forms of prosocial behaviors. Evidence suggests that there are different forms of helping and that they may differ on the basis of motivation, targets, and outcomes (Carlo and Randall, 2002;Carlo et al, 2003;Padilla-Walker and Carlo, 2015). For instance, motivations behind prosocial behavior may be altruistic or egoistic.…”

A Review of the Relationship Between Social Media Use and Online Prosocial Behavior Among Adolescents

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Social media (SoMe) activity constitutes a large part of the lives of adolescents. Even though the behavior on SoMe is complex, the research on SoMe has mostly focused on negative effects, bad content, and online antisocial behavior (OAB). Less research has been conducted on online prosocial behavior (OPB), and to what extent OPBs are widespread is relatively unknown. A review was conducted to investigate to what extent OPB is related to SoMe use among adolescents based on studies published from 2014 to May 2021. To be included, the studies had to be quantitative, non-experimental, have participants aged 13–18, include measures of SoMe and OPB, and be published in peer-reviewed journals with full text available in English, Swedish, Danish or Norwegian. A research was conducted in databases PsychINFO, Ovid MEDLINE(R), EMBASE, COCHRANE Database of Systematic Reviews, Web of Science, Sociological Abstracts, Sociological Services Abstracts, and Eric. Two studies met the eligibility criteria. Both studies found an association between OPB and SoMe use. Methodological issues, however, were identified through a quality assessment using an adapted version of the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for cross-sectional studies, and the small samples in the studies prevent us from drawing any firm conclusions. Possible reasons for the scarcity of eligible studies and directions for future research are discussed.Systematic Review Registration: PROSPERO; ID CRD42020162161 and CRISTIN; ID 2038994.

“…Differences between the sexes in terms of helping were inconsistent in the studies and were successfully predicted by different attributes of the studies. Carlo et al (2003) found that results according to gender vary in proportion to the type of reported prosocial behavior by individuals. Teenage girls exhibited altruistic and emotional prosocial behavior to a greater extent than boys.…”
