This project aims to study the motivations for charitable giving and helping behaviour and how these motivations interact with external factors under different institutions.Recent data from 2015 show that charitable donations in Australia have fallen to a 30-year low. Although real GDP has increased, inequality has risen. Social norms and perceptions relating to disadvantaged people can influence donor motivations. The anticipated goal is to design initiatives that influence prosocial activities such as charitable giving, redistribution, refugee intake and migrant integration, and improve understanding of the underlying mechanisms of prosocial behaviour.

本项目旨在研究不同制度下慈善捐赠和帮助行为的动机，以及这些动机如何与外部因素相互作用。2015年的最新数据显示，澳大利亚的慈善捐款已降至30年来的最低点。尽管实际GDP增长了，但不平等也在加剧。与弱势群体有关的社会规范和观念可以影响捐助者的动机。预期的目标是设计影响亲社会活动的举措，如慈善捐赠、再分配、难民接收和移民融入，并提高对亲社会行为潜在机制的理解。
