What is the Japanese-specific prosocial behavior, if any? We attempted to articulate it in terms of the Buddhist Seven Practices of Giving: (a) bodily/behavioral, (b) seat-offering/letting-go, (c) house-offering/hospitality, (d) kind words-giving, (e) smiling, (f) tender looking, and (g) mental/compassionate practices. We argued with psychological evidence that the West-originated concept of prosociality refers basically to active overt behaviors toward others’ welfare, whereas the Japanese prosociality involves one’s subtle facial expressions and inner gentle attitudes. A possible underlying mechanism might well be theorized, based on Haruki’s “alien reinforcement” theory, which can ably explain social behaviors especially in collective cultures.
