Answer to Question 1

Answer: Mild sadness tends to increase helping, provided that the helping behavior is seen as likely to enhance mood. People who are deeply depressed probably will not see helping as an effective way to improve their mood, and therefore are not more likely to help.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The looking glass self is the idea that our self-images are influenced by how others see us. Thus, bestowing positive, prosocial labels on a person (e.g., you are a generous person) can increase the likelihood that that person will subsequently engage in prosocial behavior, given the opportunity.
