Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 5175312, member: 173"] There’s studies on the “Selfish-Selfless Spectrum” which obviously acknowledge both always exist. (One example is Psychopathy to Altruism: Neurobiology of the Selfish-Selfless Spectrum from 2018 in Frontiers in Psychology). The general finding is that selfishness increases in times of conflict/social stress - more recent studies post-2020 indicate selfishness is on the rise in the United States. I think people tend to massively inflate exactly how good the good ol’ days were - and there’s not any research from whatever time period the good ol’ days were in this case for scholarly comparison. But the idea selfishness has increased in at least the last decade is supported by the data. [/QUOTE]
