Answer 1

Answer:

Compared with preschoolers, school-age children engage in more prosocial acts.

Explanation:

School-age children actively participate / display prosocial behaviors. Prosocial behavior is defined as any behavior that benefits others or has positive social consequences. These prosocial behaviors can be grouped into different categories: Empathy, helpful behavior (the performance of an action to benefit another or improve the well-being of another person) and cooperation (situation in which the objectives of the participating individuals are relate in such a way that each one can achieve their goal if and only if the others manage to achieve theirs). According to the results of various investigations, it is known that there is a regularity of prosocial behaviors in children, but the intensity with which these actions are carried out is not the same in all situations. In the process of development of morality in school-age children, they begin to develop social skills that allow them from an early age to manifest two fundamental classes of behaviors, considering them from the moral point of view: prosocial (altruistic and empathic) behaviors, when they actions are aimed at sharing, cooperating, comforting and helping another person and contribute to the harmonious atmosphere of the classroom; and non-prosocial behaviors, those behaviors that are not in favor of the harmony of the classroom environment and coexistence (aggression, lack of cooperation and interpersonal conflict).
