Main Focus
Natalie Popov’s research aims to identify the core dispositional tendencies that can account for individual differences in prosocial behavior across various situations. These core tendencies represent a shared, underlying dispositional core of conceptually related personality traits and provide a systematic understanding about which (classes of) traits are related to prosocial behavior in which (classes of) social situations. The project will not only provide a strong theoretical basis for future research on individual differences in prosocial behavior but also advance our knowledge about human prosociality in various ways. This work is supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
