Helping People in Times of Need Cultivates Empathy Over Time
Why is lower social class often associated with greater empathy? We test whether less wealthy people experience more challenges, thereby motivating them to help others as a means of securing future social support, and, in turn, cultivating empathy over recurrent experiences. Study 1 ( N = 513) showed that wealth was negatively correlated with empathy through fewer challenges and less helping. Study 2 ( N = 915) replicated this effect while reveal…
Thinking about God encourages intergroup prosociality even when conflict is salient
Recent research documents that thinking about God encourages intergroup prosociality among believers. An open question is whether such increased prosociality is dampened by intergroup conflict. We conducted preregistered field experiments with two ethno-religious populations in Fiji: indigenous Christian iTaukei ( N = 324) and Hindu Indo-Fijians ( N = 280). In each study, we manipulated (between-person) whether participants thought about intergro…
Colonialism and Relative Preferences for (In)Equality
To what extent are preferences for individual versus collective rights shaped by historical experiences, particularly colonialism? To answer this question, we conducted field studies in Fiji, a former British colony, home to two populations with distinct histories of colonial subjugation. We reasoned that for Indigenous iTaukei, for whom collective rights were stripped, prioritizing group rights on issues tied to colonial harm would be seen as es…
Risky Business
Some metropolitan areas (e.g., Berlin, New York) have a cosmopolitan culture. That is, they serve as centers of economic development and value diversity, creativity, and equality. These areas offer economic and creative opportunities that are open to anyone willing to take a risk. Therefore, such cities may attract people who are high in risk-taking. We first showed that real-world risk-taking is more common in cities with a more cosmopolitan cul…
Variations in the regulation of affective neural responses across three cultures
In the present research, we assessed the effects of culture on the ability to regulate affective neural responses. Using an event-related potential design focusing on the centroparietal late positive potential (LPP), we found that cultural groups differed in their ability to intentionally regulate these responses. As a group, European Americans demonstrated successful up-regulation of the LPP in response to positive and negative valence images, a…
