In the study by Scientific American, we tested people's reactions based on two mechanisms: intuition and reflection. "Intuition is automatic and easy and acts without insight into the reason behind it, while contemplation is based on conscious thinking, identifying possible behaviors, measuring costs and benefits, and rationalizing the process It is about a decisive decision. "

Based on these responses, research shows that people's initial and intuitive impulse is cooperation; only by further reflection they will decide to be more selfish. The test concluded that people are willing to pay on behalf of the interests of the group even at personal costs.

But does this mean that we are naturally cooperative or because institutional cooperation has resulted in society's achievement?

Humanity is a belief that humans have a natural intuition or tendency in thought, emotion or behavior.

Language is used for human beings to be good and evil, proving that people can not be a wickedness of nature.
