Overall, our results challenge the notion that individuals exhibit prosocial apathy when effort is required to help others and suggest that the type of incentive (avoiding harm vs. increasing wealth) is a key factor in shaping effortful prosocial behavior.

Last, using computational modelling, we show little credible evidence that discounting of pain reduction by effort differs between self and other

Participants also exerted a similar amount effort to reduce their and the other's pain, indicating that this prosocial motivation to protect others’ form harm extends beyond decision-making to action invigoration

We showed that when pain reduction is the outcome of the prosocial act individuals are similarly willing to mobilize effort to help themselves and a stranger

Prior research suggested that when effort is required to help, individuals become prosocially apathetic. Here we adapted a well-validated prosocial effort task (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28819649/) and we examined if this is the case also for non-monetary rewards, i.e. reducing other’s pain
