The scientific and technical objectives of the GISProsoc group are as follows:

• Analyse the biological, psychological and social bases related to or predictive of prosocial behaviour
• Determine instruments to assess prosocial behaviour (validity, systematic review and meta-analysis) and related constructs and variables
• Evaluate pro-social intervention programmes in formal education and with people with Special Educational Needs
• Investigate whether prosociality is a protective variable for addictive behaviours or whether it can favour disinhibition of addictive behaviours
• Design and evaluate prosocial psychological intervention programmes for carers, dependents and people with health problems
