Empathy for pain motivates actions without altruistic effects: evidence of motor dynamics and brain activity.

abstract：:Human prosociality is often assumed to emerge from exerting reflective control over initial, selfish impulses. However, recent findings suggest that prosocial actions can also stem from processes that are fast, automatic and intuitive. Here, we attempt to clarify when prosocial behavior may be intuitive by examining p...
