Prosocial risky behavior (PRB) refers to actions taken at personal risk for the benefit of others or societal welfare, combining risk-taking with prosocial intent, and involving the integrated processing of individual risk and social preferences. Building upon the review and evaluation of the definitions of PRB, existing research tools, theoretical models, and neural mechanisms, this paper elucidates the synergistic interaction and mechanisms of the emotional drive and cognitive reasoning systems in PRB. It constructs a dual-system collaborative model for PRB. Furthermore, to address the shortcomings of existing PRB research tools, such as limited cross-domain applicability and low reliability, this paper designs a PRB research paradigm within the economic decision-making domain. Combined with the dual-system collaborative model of PRB, this paper proposes a cognitive computational modeling concept for PRB and preliminarily verifies its reliability. Future research should conduct cross-cultural studies, utilizing cognitive neuroscientific technologies, to explore the cultural differences in the mechanisms underlying PRB, thereby enhancing the cross-cultural interpretive power of the constructed dual-system collaborative model of PRB. This broadens the theoretical explanatory pathways and research dimensions of PRB.
亲社会冒险行为（PRB）是指为了他人利益或社会福祉而甘愿个人冒险的行为，它将冒险与亲社会意图相结合，涉及个体风险和社会偏好的综合处理。本文在对亲社会冒险行为的定义、现有研究工具、理论模型和神经机制进行综述和评估的基础上，阐明了亲社会冒险行为中情感驱动系统和认知推理系统的协同交互作用及机制。构建了亲社会冒险行为的双系统协同模型。此外，针对现有亲社会冒险行为研究工具存在的跨领域适用性有限、可靠性较低等不足，本文设计了经济决策领域内的亲社会冒险行为研究范式。结合亲社会冒险行为的双系统协同模型，本文提出了亲社会冒险行为的认知计算建模概念，并初步验证了其可靠性。未来研究应利用认知神经科学技术开展跨文化研究，探索亲社会冒险行为背后机制的文化差异，从而增强所构建的亲社会冒险行为双系统协同模型的跨文化解释力。这拓宽了亲社会冒险行为的理论解释路径和研究维度。
