Summary/Abstract: The article reviews theoretical aspects of prosociality and perspectives in its development. Also, the results of a psychological intervention aimed at developing prosocial behavior in young people are presented. The research involved 48 young adults, aged between 21 and 26 years. The tools for assessing prosociality and its constructs were The Prosocialness Scale [4] and The prosocial tendencies measure [6]. Following the measurements made before and after the intervention to increase prosocial behavior, from one test to another we found that the intervention produced significant differences for the experimental group and a size of the medium-high intensity effect.
