Dacher Keltner: We're starting to paint this really
interesting picture of how wealth influences generosity. If you study at
the societal level, who gives higher proportions of their income away
to charity? Lower class people give more.
And what's really interesting is we're finding that lower class
people just have a sharper sensitivity to need and to people who could
use a little help. But when you simply prime, or you just get people
from an upper class background, to think about the need in their
environment, you see rises in generosity.
