WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Self-Report Altruism Scale (SRA) Test

altruism

This measure assesses the frequency of everyday helping behaviors as reported by the respondent. The Self-Report Altruism Scale (SRA) is a brief self-report instrument intended to index altruistic tendencies through retrospective ratings of common prosocial acts.

The instrument contains 13 items and typically takes about 3 minutes to complete. Items ask respondents to indicate how often they have engaged in specific helping behaviors, supporting use in research and clinical contexts where a concise estimate of prosocial behavior is needed. The Self-Report Altruism Scale (SRA) is attributed to Daniel Batson.
