Abstract

Prosocial behavior refers to a kind of behavior that accords with the social expectations and has no obvious benefit to the actor himself, but the actor gives benefits voluntarily to the recipient of the behavior. Generally, prosocial behavior could be divided into altruistic behavior and helping behavior. It is a symbol of social welfare and social responsibility. Meanwhile, prosocial behavior is the foundation of harmonious social development and construction. As the youth who shoulder the heavy responsibility of the era of national rejuvenation, college students are the main force in building a harmonious society. Thus, it is significant to research and analyze relevant information about the factors affecting their pro-social behavior. Bases on the case of college students saving lives, the author explores the pro-social behavior from different aspects, for example, the subjects who impose education, behavior motivation, decision making mode and the degree of internalization about the behavior. However, considering the limited resource and information at this this stage, we provide some recommendations to enhance the prosocial behavior of college students from the following aspects, for example, strengthen moral education, set a splendid example and value the reinforcement of peers.
