Here, we examine the evidence for the hypothesis that poverty may have particular psychological  consequences that can lead to economic behaviors that make it difficult of joh insecurity  using a new theory-hased measure incorporating recent conceptual arguments.  We also compared the measure's reliability and construct  validity  to escape poverty. The evidence indicates those of two existing global measures of joh insecurity. Results  indicated  that poverty causes stress personal, joh,  and negative affective states which organizational realities associated  with a perceived lack of control are correlated with measured job  insecurity. Joh insecurity  in turn may lead leads  to short-sighted and risk-averse decision-making, possibly by limiting attention and favoring habitual behaviors at the expense of goal-directed ones. Together, these relationships may constitute a feedback loop that contributes attitudinal reactions—  intentions  to quit, reduced commitment, and reduced satisfaction.  These results generally support  the perpetuation utility  ofpoverty. We conclude by pointing toward specific gaps in  our knowledge new measure  and outlining poverty alleviation programs that this mechanism suggests.  Copyright © 2014, American Association provide important directions  for the Advancement of Science.  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24855262 future research.  Moral consequences of becoming unemployed

It tests the effects of various measures of unconditional altruism and conditional or reciprocal altruism. The results show strong support for conditional or reciprocal altruism. However, people who are self-reported unconditional altruists make offers that are highly elastic with respect to the apparent worthiness of the recipient. One interpretation of this is that self-reported unconditional altruists have combined desires to help others and to reciprocate; unconditional altruism and reciprocal altruism may not be independent motives. I refer to this combination as empathic responsiveness.
