Actitudes hacia la intervención en casos de violencia de pareja en la policía local de la Comunidad Valenciana

2013

La escasa investigación sobre las actitudes de ayuda del entorno social que rodea a las mujeres víctimas de violencia de pareja sugiere que unos mayores niveles de implicación del entorno social de las víctimas, asumiendo una mayor responsabilidad y un rol más activo, pueden contribuir a una mayor exposición y control social de la violencia de pareja (Fagan, 1989; Gelles, 1983; Klein, Campbell, Soler y Ghez, 1997). De ahí la importancia de comprender mejor los factores que influyen en las actitudes de ayuda a las víctimas del entorno social que las rodea.De acuerdo con el modelo propuesto por Latané y Darley (1970), los espectadores y espectadoras de situaciones de riesgo potencial siguen u…

Automatic Influences of Priming on Prosocial Behavior

2013

Literature on the automaticity of social behavior indicates that in some circumstances, priming a concept automatically activates related behavioral schemas. Previous research studies have used priming techniques to increase willingness to help, but most of these have simply measured intention to engage in prosocial behavior rather than real helping behavior. Two different studies investigated the effect of priming the concept of prosocial behavior on real helping behavior. After priming prosociality through a scrambled sentences test, participants were shown to increase their donation rate after a direct request coming from an experimenter's confederate (study 1) and to spontaneously help …

Prosocial priming and bystander effect in an online context.

2022

The present study tested the effect of priming the concept of prosociality on the bystander effect in an online environment. Participants were sent an e-mail requesting a plea for help and randomly assigned to one of four conditions in a 2 (Bystander: 0 vs. 14) × 2 (Priming: present vs. absent) design. The results demonstrated support for the study hypothesis. As expected, the virtual presence of many others significantly reduced e-mail responsiveness except when the request for help is preceded by prosocial priming. Implications of these findings for the literature on the bystander effect and priming are discussed.

To Help or Not to Help? Prosocial Behavior, Its Association With Well-Being, and Predictors of Prosocial Behavior During the Coronavirus Disease Pand…

2022

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic fundamentally disrupted humans’ social life and behavior. Public health measures may have inadvertently impacted how people care for each other. This study investigated prosocial behavior, its association well-being, and predictors of prosocial behavior during the first COVID-19 pandemic lockdown and sought to understand whether region-specific differences exist. Participants (N = 9,496) from eight regions clustering multiple countries around the world responded to a cross-sectional online-survey investigating the psychological consequences of the first upsurge of lockdowns in spring 2020. Prosocial behavior was reported to occur frequently. Multi…

Tendences izjust vainu, prosociālas orientācijas un dusmu reakciju saistība

2018

Šī bakalaura darba mērķis bija noteikt, vai/kādas saistības 19–25 gadus vecu studentu izlasē pastāv starp tendenci izjust vainu, prosociālu orientāciju un dusmu reakcijām. Korelatīva dizaina pētījumā 114 studentu (19 vīriešu, 95 sieviešu) izlasē (M=21,78 gadi, SD=1,99) tika izmantota Vainas izjūtas kā personības iezīmes skala no Vainas izjūtas aptaujas, Prosociālās orientācijas aptauja un Dusmu reakciju aptauja. Rezultātu analīze neuzrādīja saistību starp tendenci izjust vainu un prosociālu orientāciju, savukārt tendence izjust vainu statistiski nozīmīgi korelēja ar dusmu ruminēšanu. Apstiprinājās statistiski nozīmīga pozitīva saistība uz citiem orientētai empātijai ar konstruktīvi izpaustā…

Systematic review of prosocial behavior measures

2018

Measuring prosocial conduct, just as other constructs which are relevant for psychological adjustment, requires a base of knowledge which is orderly and up-to-date, which helps to identify and methodological aspects for its construction. The objective of this study is to identify the instruments for measuring prosocial behavior which are available today in the empirical literature, as well as to analyze their characteristics and psychometric properties.In this study, the bibliographic search was carried out on the databases of web of science (WOS) and Dialnet from 1900 to 2017 with special emphasis on the last decade. Sixteen instruments relevant to prosocial behavior were chosen describing…

Prosociality and life satisfaction: A daily-diary investigation among Spanish university students

2018

Abstract With a diary study, we tested the positive effect of prosociality on life satisfaction. Fifty-six Spanish undergraduate students (45 females; Mage = 21.08 years) rated their life satisfaction, prosociality, self-esteem, and physical appearance for 5 consecutive days. Multilevel results indicated that within-individual positive deviations in prosociality (i.e., behaving more prosocial than usual) were uniquely and significantly associated with higher life satisfaction on that specific day. Students' self-esteem, physical appearance, and positive daily events were also predictive of life satisfaction. Exploratory analyses revealed that the positive effect of prosociality on life sati…

Relationships between psychosocial well-being and leisure time physical activity among 160.000 young Finnish men: a cross-sectional study during 2015…

2023

AbstractEvidence on the relationship between psychosocial well-being and physical activity (PA) is insufficient, especially in young adults between 18 and 29 years. Identifying protective factors for psychosocial well-being as well as factors that may promote PA behaviour in this specific age group is crucial.The aim of the present study was to explore the association between self-reported leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and a number of measures of psychosocial well-being in a large sample of Finnish young men. The sample used for this study is based on registers of the Finnish Defence Forces and consist of questionnaire-based data collected from 159,776 young healthy men (18–29 years…
