Levine et al. (2001) - Cross-cultural altruism | Evidence from Piliavin's study suggests the rate of helping differs from city to city. Cities with 'simpatico' characteristics have higher helping rate. Simpatico cultures defined as cultures that have proactive concern with social wellbeing of others. |
Aims & Research Questions | Does whether people help vary cross-culturally? Do strangers in non-emergency situations receive more or less help? How does 'personality' of city relate to helping behaviour? Investigate differences in non-emergency helping behaviour towards strangers. |
