“…Although religious people have been found to score higher in various prosocial attitudes (Brooks, 2003(Brooks, , 2005(Brooks, , 2007Friedrichs, 1960;Furrow et al, 2004;Gronbjerg & Never, 2004;Guiso et al, 2003;Lam, 2002;McCullough & Worthington, 1999;Morgan, 1983;Putnam & Campbell, 2010;Su, Chou, & Osborne, 2011), they have also been shown to score higher in a host of negative and antisocial attitudes (Batson, Floyd, Meyer, & Winner, 1999;Cornwall, Perry, Louw, & Stringer, 2012;Park, 2012;Saslow et al, 2012;Stegmueller, Scheepers, Rossteutscher, & de Jong, 2012;Stokes & Regnerus, 2009;Victoroff et al, 2010). It is thus difficult to tell whether any prosocial effects of religion are an indication of general prosociality rather than of favouritism toward an ingroup (Hunter, 2001;Ottoni & Wilhelm, 2010), which might indeed be mirrored by hostility toward outsiders (Burris & Jackson, 1999;Heiphetz, Spelke, & Banaji, 2012;Hunsberger & Jackson, 2005).…”

Priming with religious concepts is known to have a positive effect on prosocial behavior; however, the effects of religious primes associated with outgroups remain unknown. To explore this, we conducted a field experiment in a multicultural, multireligious setting (the island of Mauritius). Our design used naturally occurring, ecologically relevant contextual primes pertinent to everyday religious and secular life while maintaining full experimental control. We found that both ingroup and outgroup religious contexts increased generosity as measured by a donation task. In accordance with previous research, we also found an interaction between individual religiosity and the efficacy of the religious primes. We discuss these findings and their interpretation, and we suggest potential avenues for further research.

“…Donor gender [ 40 , 41 ], age [ 29 ], education level [ 29 ], income [ 29 ], and geographical location [ 35 ] had significant effects on donation behaviors. Younger donors were more willingness to donate [ 32 ], and people with higher education and income level were more likely to donate [ 42 ].…”

Background Medical crowdfunding provides opportunities for individuals who lack financial resources to access the health services that they need. Despite the popularity of medical crowdfunding, the current understanding of the success of medical crowdfunding campaigns is fragmented and inadequate. Objective We aimed to comprehensively investigate which factors lead to the success of medical crowdfunding campaigns. Methods A search was conducted in PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, ACM Digital Library, and ScienceDirect from 2010 to June 2020. Papers directly and indirectly related to the success of medical crowdfunding campaigns were included. Two reviewers independently extracted information on the success of medical crowdfunding campaigns. Results Our search yielded 441 articles, of which 13 met the inclusion criteria. Medical crowdfunding is increasingly attracting academic attention, and most studies leverage text analysis as their research methods; however, there is a lack of consensus on the definition of medical crowdfunding among researchers. Four categories of factors that affect the success of medical crowdfunding were identified: platforms, raisers, donors, and campaigns. Conclusions Although some limitations exist in our systematic review, our study captured and mapped literatures of the success of medical crowdfunding campaigns systematically, which can be used as the basis for future research on this topic.

“…Gifford & Nilsson (2014) consider religion as one of the social determinants. According to Sablosky (2014) and Su, Chou, and Osborne (2011), religiosity impacts significantly on financial decisions. According to Love (2010), marital status has important effects on household decisions, including financial ones.…”

The aim of the article is to determine the impact of social determinants on saving for old age with regards to income. The study presents two models of logistic regression. The first one includes only social determinants of family members among independent variables, while the second one includes also income. The results of logistic regression in the model excluding income showed that such variables as gender, age, years of education, place of residence or number of household members have a significant impact on saving for old age. Moreover, another conclusion drawn from the results is that after including income in the model (which turned out to be statistically significant) almost all social determinants remain significant. Therefore, income is a significant variable which affects the odds ratio of owning old-age savings by a household, so financial determinants are important, when we want to study the level of savings. The research presented in the article comes from the representative nationwide study the Social Diagnosis which was conducted among 11,740 households in Poland in 2015.
