摘要：Prosocial behaviours,which constitute an important aspect of social life,are essential for the proper functioning of society. These kinds of behaviors are appreciated and encouraged in almost every society. Recent research on prosocial behaviour has started to emphasize the multidimensional nature and underlying motivations of prosocial behaviour. Within the framework of Self- Determination Theory (SDT) suggests that the motivation behind engaging in prosocial behaviour is intrinsic or extrinsic. In this study,the psychometric structure of The Prosocial Tendencies Measure,which was developed by Carlo and Randall (2002) and distinguishes between six different types of prosocial behaviours,was examined based on SDT. Analyses to determine whether the items of this scale can be classified as intrinsic and extrinsic motivational factors showed that the scale can be used in two dimensions as intrinsic-extrinsic motivations. We also found that these two factors demonstrated good internal consistency. However,when Carlo and Randall's (2002) classification is taken into consideration,it seems that,especially,the altruism sub-dimension needs to be re-conceptualized in the Turkish cultural context. The obtained results were discussed in the framework of Self Determination Theory.
