• An Investigation of the Relations Between Altruism, Empathy, and Spirituality (2012, background): “These findings are generally in line with existing research that supports the link between empathy, altruism, and their association with spirituality (Batson et al., 2004; L. B. Koenig et al., 2007; Kennedy et al., 1994; Saroglou et al., 2005).”
• Effects of religious setting on cooperative behavior: a case study from Mauritius (2013, background): “positive correlation between intrinsic religiosity and prosocial behavior (Saroglou et al., 2005; Soler, 2012), most others show that such a correlation is either nonexistent (Anderson, Mellor, & Milyo, 2010; Batson, Oleson, & Weeks, 1989; Batson, Schoenrade, & Ventis, 1993; Darley & Batson, 1973; E”
• Religion, Spirituality, and Health: The Research and Clinical Implications (2012, background): “Of those, 33 (70%) reported significant associations, whereas five (11%) found less altruism among the more R/S; of the 20 best studies, 15 (75%) reported positive relationships [108–113]”

• Religious Fundamentalism and Limited Prosociality as a Function of the Target (2011, methodology): “These findings are in line with the idea that religious prosociality is limited to people with whom one has close interpersonal contact (Saroglou et al. 2005), whose perception counts (Batson, Anderson, and Collins 2005), and with whom a reputation is important to maintain (Norenzayan and Shariff 20”
• I to we: The role of consciousness transformation in compassion and altruism (2007, background): “In addition, the extent to which religious participation actually results in increased altruism, particularly when it involves significant cost or sacrifice, remains in question (Batson 2002; McCullough and Worthington 1999; Saroglou et al. 2005).”
