Journal ArticleDOI
Empathy as a driver of prosocial behaviour: highly conserved neurobehavioural mechanisms across species.
TL;DR: This paper integrates the perspectives of evolution, animal behaviour, developmental psychology, and social and clinical neuroscience to elucidate the understanding of the proximate mechanisms underlying empathy, focusing on processing of signals of distress and need, and their relation to prosocial behaviour.
Reference EntryDOI
15 Prosocial Development
TL;DR: This chapter reviews research and some current theory on the development of prosocial responding (including prosocial behavior and empathy-related responding) and possible antecedents/causes, outcomes, and correlates and presents a general framework for integrating factors that contribute to prosocial responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the genetic and environmental contributions to BMI variation from infancy to early adulthood and the ways they differ by sex and geographic regions representing high (North America and Australia), moderate (Europe), and low levels (East Asia) of obesogenic environments.

TL;DR: Comparing geographic-cultural regions, genetic variance was greatest in North-America and Australia and lowest in East-Asia, but the relative proportion of genetic variation was roughly similar across these regions.

Synchronous Rhythmic Interaction Enhances Children’s Perceived Similarity and Closeness towards Each Other
TL;DR: It is revealed that synchronous interaction can positively alter social attitudes between interacting children, suggesting a potential mechanism by which synchrony may enhance positive social interaction through attitudinal shift.
