| Sumario: | MORAL IDENTITY AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH PROSOCIAL BEHAVIORS
IN EMERGING ADULTHOOD
In the ield of moral psychology, the concept of moral identity has
gathered strength. It refers to the importance of morality for the
self. Many studies have highlighted the relationship between moral
identity and prosocial behaviors. These are voluntary behaviors that
beneit other people. Moral identity has been considered as a result
of the tension among the values of agency (promotion of self-inter-est) and communion (concern for the interests of the group or the
community). The study considers the relationship between moral
identity and prosocial behaviors using an instrument that allows to
identify the values of agency and communion that underlie the par -ticipants´ answers. Thirty participants will answer to the Damon and
Hart´s Self-Understanding Interview and to the Rushton, Chrisjohn
and Fekken´s Self-Report Altruism Scale. We expect to ind that the
values of communion will predict prosocial behaviors and that the
values of agency will negatively correlate with prosocial behaviors.
Besides, we expect that when both values are present in the same
segment of a narrative, it will serve as the best predictor of pro-social behaviors. Results of the research will be presented at the
scientiic meeting. |
