A. When you see an opportunity for altruism in a public setting, you might consciously view this as a chance to impress your peers and social group (or even potential mates) with your generosity. B. When you see a stranger in trouble in a public setting, you might believe that if you are the first bystander to take action and offer help, it may inspire others to follow your example. C.

When you perform a major act of altruism (e.g., donating a kidney) for a stranger, you do so knowing that if you ever need help (e.g., you encounter a medical problem of your own), that person is likely to return the favor later.
