the roles of perspective taking empathic concern and Prosocial moral reasoning in the self reported Prosocial behaviors of filipino and turkish young adults
Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, 2020Co-Authors: Gustavo Carlo, Zehra Gulseven, Asiye Kumru, Maria Rosario T De GuzmanAbstract:Traditional social cognitive model of Prosocial Development suggests important links between both sociocognitive and socioemotive traits and Prosocial behaviors. The present study examined the rela...

Prosocial behavior in adolescence gender differences in Development and links with empathy
Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2018Co-Authors: Jolien Van Der Graaff, Gustavo Carlo, Elisabetta Crocetti, Hans M Koot, Susan J T BranjeAbstract:Although adolescents’ Prosocial behavior is related to various positive outcomes, longitudinal research on its Development and predictors is still sparse. This 6-wave longitudinal study investigated the Development of Prosocial behavior across adolescence, and examined longitudinal associations with perspective taking and empathic concern. Participants were 497 adolescents (M age t1 = 13.03 years, 43% girls) who reported on their Prosocial behaviors, empathic concern, and perspective taking. The results revealed marked gender differences in the Development of Prosocial behavior. For boys, levels of Prosocial behavior were stable until age 14, followed by an increase until age 17, and a slight decrease thereafter. For girls, Prosocial behavior increased until age 16 years and then slightly decreased. Regarding longitudinal associations, empathic concern was consistently related to subsequent Prosocial behavior. However, perspective taking was only indirectly related to Prosocial behavior, via its effect on empathic concern. Tests of the direction of effects showed support for the notion that earlier Prosocial behavior predicts subsequent empathy-related traits, but only for girls. The findings support cognitive-Developmental and moral socialization theories of Prosocial Development and the primary role of moral emotions in predicting Prosocial behaviors. Our findings inform strategies to foster Prosocial behaviors by emphasizing moral emotions rather than moral cognitions during adolescence.

The Associations of Biculturalism to Prosocial Tendencies and Positive Self Evaluations.
Journal of Latina o psychology, 2016Co-Authors: Gustavo Carlo, Camille D. Basilio, George P KnightAbstract:Although some research exists on biculturalism and negative adjustment, few studies have examined the mechanisms that account for the positive correlates of biculturalism in U.S. Latino youth. Two competing reverse causal models were tested. Specifically, we examined how biculturalism among 574 U.S. Mexican adolescents (n =296 girls; M = 17.84 years, SD = .46 years) was related to Prosocial tendencies and positive self evaluation (i.e., self-esteem and general self-efficacy). The findings yielded supportive evidence for both reverse causal models suggesting that Prosocial tendencies may mediate the relations between biculturalism and positive self evaluations, and that positive self evaluations may mediate the relations between biculturalism and Prosocial tendencies. The implications of the role of biculturalism for understanding Prosocial Development and positive self evaluations in U.S. Mexican youth are discussed.

the longitudinal relations among dimensions of parenting styles sympathy Prosocial moral reasoning and Prosocial behaviors
International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2011Co-Authors: Gustavo Carlo, Maria Vicenta Mestre, Paula Samper, Brian E ArmentaAbstract:Developmental scholars assert that parents are important in fostering Prosocial behaviors in adolescents, but longitudinal investigations on this topic are limited. Participants consisted of 372 boys and 358 girls with a mean age of 10.84 years (SD = 1.57) at Wave 1 from a mostly middle class community in Spain. Across three successive years, participants completed measures of fathers’ and mothers’ warmth and strict control, sympathy, Prosocial moral reasoning, and self- and peer-reported Prosocial behaviors. Results showed that parental warmth, sympathy, and Prosocial moral reasoning were predictive of Prosocial behaviors. Further analyses showed bidirectional effects such that early Prosocial behaviors predicted later parenting and adolescents’ Prosociality. Findings lend support to cognitive-Developmental and moral internalization models of Prosocial Development.

Prosocial Development in late adolescence a longitudinal study
Child Development, 1995Co-Authors: Nancy Eisenberg, Gustavo Carlo, Bridget C Murphy, Patricia Van CourtAbstract:Change in Prosocial moral reasoning over 15 years, gender differences in Prosocial reasoning, and the interrelations of moral reasoning, Prosocial behavior, and empathy-related emotional responses were examined with longitudinal data from 17-18- and 19-20-year-olds and data from adolescents interviewed for the first time. Hedonistic reasoning declined in use until adolescence, and then increased somewhat in early adulthood. Needs-oriented and stereotypic reasoning increased until mid-childhood or early adolescence and then declined in use. Direct reciprocity and approval reasoning, which appeared to be on the decline in mid-adolescence in previous follow-ups, showed no decline into early adulthood. Several modes of higher-level reasoning increased in use across adolescence and early adulthood. Females' overall reasoning was higher than males'. Scores on interview and objective measures of Prosocial moral reasoning were positively correlated. Consistent with expectations, there was some evidence of relations among Prosocial reasoning, Prosocial behavior, sympathy, and perspective taking.

you get what you get and you don t throw a fit emotion socialization and child physiology jointly predict early Prosocial Development
Developmental Psychology, 2016Co-Authors: Meghan B Scrimgeour, Elizabeth L Davis, Kristin A BussAbstract:Prosocial behavior in early childhood is a precursor to later adaptive social functioning. This investigation leveraged mother-reported, physiological, and observational data to examine children's Prosocial Development from age 2 to age 4 (N = 125). Maternal emotion socialization (ES) strategies and children's parasympathetic regulation have each been implicated in Prosocial behavior, but are rarely examined together or prospectively. Given the transactional nature of parent-child relationships, the effects of maternal ES strategies on children's Prosocial behavior are likely moderated by children's individual differences in parasympathetic regulation. As expected, mothers' reported use of problem-focused ES strategies predicted Prosocial behavior at age 4. Additionally, children who showed parasympathetic reactivity consistent with more effective emotion regulation during a lab-based disappointment task were rated as more Prosocial at age 4. Several interactions with maternal ES strategies emerged. Children's parasympathetic regulation moderated the relations between observed physical comfort or cognitive reframing and Prosocial behavior. Observed distraction (either behavioral or cognitive) moderated the link between mothers' reported use of problem-focused ES strategies and children's Prosocial behavior. Findings suggest that children's emerging Prosocial behavior is shaped by the interactive contributions of interpersonal maternal ES as well as intrapersonal intrinsic physiological regulation.
