title: Experimental, cultural, and neural evidence of deliberate prosociality.
abstract: A recent PNAS paper proposed that prosocial choice might be due to mistakes that disappear with learning. The authors' method for comparing preferences and mistakes might prove useful in other species. However, human evidence from various treatments, cultures, and the brain support the idea that humans are prosocial rather than mistaken.
