Table 1. Contribution of empathic concern (EC), instrumental harm (IH), and impartial beneficence (IB) scores on subjects’ behavior in study 1.
The table presents results from three multiple regression analyses. The dependent variables in the three analyses were hyperaltruism (), relative harm sensitivity (), and relative monetary sensitivity (). Results in bold are further illustrated in Figure 3C.
