Variations in the oxytocin receptor gene and prosocial behavior: moderating effects of situational factors.

Integrative zoology - 1 Nov 2018

Wu Nan, Su Yanjie

Abstract excerpt

Humans are the most prosocial primate species and they often exhibit high levels of prosocial behavior toward genetically unrelated individuals. Traditional evolutionary theories are not sufficient to explain the individual differences and mechanisms related to prosociality. In this study, we focused on the gene-situation interaction in prosocial behaviors, and the patterns of genotype variance related to...
