Abstract

The present study deals with the question whether persons who constantly feel deprived (both materially and non-materially) would help other people more than persons who do not feel deprived because they can sympathize more with the needy, or would help less because their mood is often bad, and people do not tend to help while being in a bad mood. It was found that subjects who considered themselves to be highly deprived helped more, on two separate occasions, than subjects who regarded themselves as not deprived.
