在这篇文章中，作者介绍并测试了一个群体层面的观点，同情和人际吸引力在帮助中的作用。与我们的预测一致，研究1是一项对166名艾滋病志愿者进行的纵向实地研究，证实了当接受援助的人是内群体成员时，共情是一个更强的帮助预测因子，而不是当那个人是外群体成员时。同样如假设的那样，当接受者是外群体成员时，吸引力是一个更强的帮助预测因子，而不是当那个人是内群体成员时。研究2在一项关于自发帮助肝炎患者的实验室实验中复制并进一步扩展了这些结果。为了加强研究结果的有效性，在两项研究中，即使作者在统计学上控制了潜在的其他帮助预测因素，移情和吸引力的影响仍然存在。这些研究结果的理论和实践意义进行了讨论，以帮助在组间环境。
In this article, the authors introduce and test a group-level perspective on the role of empathy and interpersonal attraction in helping. In line with our predictions, Study 1, a longitudinal field study of 166 AIDS volunteers, confirmed that empathy was a stronger predictor of helping when the recipient of assistance was an in-group member than when that person was an out-group member. Also as hypothesized, attraction was a stronger predictor of helping when the recipient was an out-group member than when that person was an in-group member. Study 2 replicated and further extended these results in a laboratory experiment on spontaneous helping of a person with hepatitis. Strengthening the validity of the findings, in both studies the effects of empathy and attraction held up even when the authors statistically controlled for potential alternative predictors of helping. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings for helping in intergroup contexts are discussed.
