Vagal activity is quadratically related to prosocial traits, prosocial emotions, and observer perceptions of prosociality.

Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 2014
In the present article, we introduce the quadratic vagal activity-prosociality hypothesis, a theoretical framework for understanding the vagus nerve's involvement in prosociality. We argue that vagus nerve activity supports prosocial behavior by regulating physiological systems that enable emotional expression, empathy for others' mental and emotional ...

The unfairness of being prosocial

Nature Human Behaviour, 2017
A new study shows that brain responses to unfairness during economic decision-making can predict current and future depression indices. Neural response patterns in the amygdala related to inequity tracked indices of depression, particularly for prosocial individuals who tend to be most self-sacrificing.

Prosocial Arousal in Children

Child Development Perspectives, 2017
Abstract Children's prosociality emerges early in life, which suggests that helping others is rooted deeply in human nature. At the same time, the motivation underlying young children's instrumental helping poses a puzzle. Children do not express a specific emotion such as sympathy when removing physical obstacles for others.
