More moral by playing together?

How does the playing behaviour of children influence their prosocial behaviour?

This is the question scientists at the Leipzig Research Centre for Early Childhood Development (LFE) at the University of Leipzig and the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig have researched. It turned out that cooperative games encouraged the willingness to share with other children. The researchers have now published their new findings in the specialist journal “PLoS ONE”.
