Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Batson's research suggests that helping behavior can be influenced by a variety of motives, but sometimes altruism can play a role. Therefore, option C is the best choice. Option A is incorrect because there are cases where helping may not be altruistic. Option B is too extreme and suggests that almost all helping behavior is egoistic, which is not supported by Batson's research. Option D is also incorrect because Batson's research suggests that altruism can sometimes be a factor in helping behavior.
