Abstract

Understanding how intergroup prosociality evolves in war-torn societies, and if it can be transmitted to the next generations, is critical for understanding better the perpetuation of conflict. We used a novel Intended Prosociality Task to measure intergroup prosociality between former perpetrators, survivors and their children in Rwanda.
