Difference between Prosocial Behavior and Antisocial Behavior

Definition

Prosocial behavior refers to any action that benefits another individual while antisocial behavior generally refers to any act which intends to harm or negatively impact another individual.

Examples

Prosocial behavior is exemplified by sharing, donating, being friendly, expressing concern, and other forms of helpful conduct. In comparison, antisocial behavior is exemplified by threats, bullying, graffiti, discrimination, deceit, lack of remorse, and other forms of hostile conduct.

Dictionary

Unlike the word “antisocial”, the term “prosocial” does not appear in most dictionaries; it was coined by social scientists as the opposite of “antisocial”.

Physiological Effects

Prosocial behavior enhances the immune system, promotes the release of oxytocin (a hormone which promotes social bonding), and facilitates frontal cortical processes. On the other hand, antisocial behavior stimulates threat processing and activates stress responses.
