Abstract:
In three studies conducted in the United States (n = 598), Poland (n = 1000) and Chile (n = 311), we measured participants' Identification With All Humanity and their endorsement of Universalist and Benevolent values as defined by Schwartz and colleagues. In all three studies, when IWAH scores were regressed onto values scores, IWAH scores were significantly (positively) related to the endorsement of Universalism values and were not significantly related to the endorsement of Benevolence values. With one exception, this was also true for the subscales of the two measures of values. The present results confirm a recent model of prosociality that distinguishes ideological and interpersonal prosociality. Although Universalism and Benevolence are both prosocial values, they refer to different domains of prosociality, ideological and interpersonal respectively, and IWAH is related to the former but not to the latter.
