Discussions of altruism occur in three importantly different contexts. During the past four decades, evolutionary theory has been concerned with the possibility that forms of behaviour labelled as altruistic could emerge and could be maintained under natural selection.

Psychiatric Quarterly, 1981
Pseudo-altruism is a pattern of behavior used by people who have a problem in coping satisfactorily with repressed rage.

Darwinian selection and “altruism”
Theoretical Population Biology, 1978Models are proposed for evolution at a single locus affecting altruistic behavior in which genotypic fitnesses are Darwinian and frequency (but not density) dependent. The fitnesses are composed, either in a multiplicative or an additive way, of factors which depend on the receipt and donation of altruistic behavior. The factors are determined from the

They essay explores the question of whether a society that is more altruistic would be one which is more free or less. It begins by considering cases where altruism is legally enforced, the paradigm example of which is good Samaritan legislation.

Putting the Altruism Back into Altruism: The Evolution of Empathy
Annual Review of Psychology, 2008Evolutionary theory postulates that altruistic behavior evolved for the return-benefits it bears the performer. For return-benefits to play a motivational role, however, they need to be experienced by the organism. Motivational analyses should restrict themselves, therefore, to the altruistic impulse and its knowable consequences.
