Deconstruction of prosocial behavior: a look at encounters

Human nature is determined by various social, environmental, political, cultural, and psychological factors; human beings are social constructions. In this sense, since childhood the first dynamics in the social world are experienced and from there, behaviors and the possibilities for success in adult life are modulated. From the above, the objective of this book is to explore the scientific production on prosocial behaviors in infants with the prospect of enabling the development of intervention strategies at an early age. Methodologically it is a work that was developed from a critical and reflective perspective, exploring academic productions around the understanding of Bandura’s theory of vicarious learning from the neuroscience in childhood, cognitive and emotional processes as predictors of prosocial behavior and empathy from the vicarious learning process in childhood, the understanding of social relationships, disruptive behaviors and prosocial processes from vicarious learning and finally, a bibliometric analysis about the prosocial behavior. All these theoretical routes are to contribute to the generation of scenarios for understanding and transforming social processes in infants. It is important to highlight that prosocial behavior has been studied from adolescence to adulthood due to the implications it has on human relationships, form their behaviors and understanding of social norms and the acquisition of higher cognitive processes that allow them to understand and evaluate the moral patterns of their culture, however, in childhood the first displays are developed, displays of the integration of cultural patterns and norms, due to the initiation of the process of social interaction, cognitive development, and learning from the “teaching-learning” process.
