Question 2

  Under which of the following conditions is Amy LEAST likely to help the person look for the ring, according to the empathy-altruism hypothesis?

  b. Amy feels empathy toward the person, but she doesn't think she has much to gain by helping, so she decides not to help the person look for the ring.
  c. Amy doesn't feel empathy toward the person but recognizes her as a TA in her English class. Amy really wants to get a good grade in that class, so she decides not to help her TA look for the ring.
  d. Amy doesn't feel empathy toward the person and doesn't think she has much to gain by helping, so she decides not to help the person look for the ring.
