摘要
Beliefs about altruism and self-interest of 25 participants were examined through a grounded theory methodology. Altruism was defined as the promotion of needs of others and self-interest as the promotion of needs of self. Data sources included interviews, focus group, journal analysis, artifacts, and a measure of altruism. The relationship between altruism and self-interest emerged and was composed of 12 themes. Themes described a dynamic theory that was systemic, values oriented, and interactional.
