The Altruistic Personality: Current Controversies
This paper examines some of the possible reasons behind altruistic exhibited behavior in humans. The paper offers possible explanations that try to reconcile altruistic behavior with the assumption that humans care only about themselves. Specifically, the paper discusses a number of studies conducted from the psychoanalytic, biological, and social learning viewpoints. The conclusions of each study are given. The paper highlights an apparent trend found in the conclusions of the different studies. Namely,each study seems to suggest that altruistic behavior could be a result of "social egoism." The paper also touches on how future studies could be designed in order to better explain altruitic behavior. 15 sources, 10 pages.
