How do people behave when disasters strike? Popular media accounts depict panic and cruelty, but in fact individuals often cooperate with and care for one another during crises. I summarize evidence for such 'catastrophe compassion', discuss its roots, and consider how it might be cultivated in more mundane times.
当灾难来临时,人们会如何表现?大众媒体的描述充满了恐慌和残忍,但事实上,在危机时刻,个人往往会相互合作和关心。我总结了这种“灾难同情”的证据,探讨了它的根源,并思考了如何在更平凡的时刻培养这种同情。
