On my way back from Barcelona where I enjoyed the wonderful weather, swam in a rooftop pool, celebrated my 29th birthday, ate lots of patatas bravas and presented work with @klararaiber.bsky.social#ECSR2024 (not in order of most enjoyable)

Cover slide for the presentation titled 'Fostering caregiving intentions for neighbors. A matter of felt reciprocity and previous experiences?'

Looking for panel data on charitable giving, volunteering or attitudes and values related to giving? Check out the Giving in the Netherlands Panel Survey (GINPS) on #OSFosf.io/4unf9/. It includes ten waves of data collected over the span of twenty years (2002-2021)!

Haha this happens to me in so many places (at least in the Netherlands). I always thought it was just construction workers who forgot that women existed....

The social environment is key!🗝️ People are influenced by the behavior of others, by norms, by opportunities for helping and who asks for help in this decision. Prior studies that viewed the decision to help as a purely individual choice are thus limited

Not all recipients are equal! ⚖️ People do not help random others; whether they are willing and able to help depends on who the recipient of help is. For example, people are more willing to provide informal help t neighbors when they believe these neighbors will reciprocate their help

Helping inspires helping! My research shows that through socialization and reciprocity, people who provide informal help inspire others to do the same! For example, when people have always helped their neighbors, they are more likely to receive informal help, even from new neighbors!

Tomorrow is the big day! I'm going to defend my PhD dissertation on the impact of the social environment on informal helping! 🥳 My dissertations indicates that characteristics of help recipients, family members and society as a whole affect informal helping! Some more insights below!
