Pesquisa: Crianças de 4 Anos Detestam Comunismo e Aprovam Caridade.

No vídeo acima, o brilhante e divertido Andrew Klavan explica o que significa "igualdade" na cabeça de esquerdistas.

Essa semana, eu li sobre uma pesquisa que mostra que crianças detestam comunismo.

A igualdade para os esquerdistas, como explica Klavan, aprova que pessoas que não contribuíram para a realização de algo recebam os ganhos obtidos pelos outros.

Crianças de 4 a 10 anos detestam isso.

Elas detestam quem consegue as coisas sem ter contribuído para isso. Elas estão prontas para punir as crianças que fazem isso.

E essas crianças entendem também quando a entrega de bens é feita em nome da caridade. E elas aprovam quando isso é feito.

Na pesquisa, crianças tinham que desistir de parte de seus chocolates para obterem bolo ou sementes. Quando algumas crianças recebiam o bolo ou as sementes sem ter dado os chocolates, as crianças reagiam contra. Mas quando uma criança perdeu seus chocolates sem ter culpa (um cachorro comeu os chocolates), elas tendiam a aceitar que a criança recebesse a recompensa.

Hummm...São Paulo não nos cansa de provar que a lei divina está inserida no coração humano (Romanos 2:15).

4-Year-Olds Are Smarter Than Democrats. Study Finds Toddlers Dislike Freeloaders.

"Children as young as age 4 express dislike of and are willing to punish those who freeload off the work of other group members, a new Yale University study has found," reported Yale News.

But kids also make a clear distinction between those who freeload intentionally and those who have good reasons why they can’t contribute.

“This expectation of cooperation emerges by pre-school and maybe even earlier,” said Yarrow Dunham, assistant professor of psychology and senior author of the paper published in Psychological Science.

Psychologists have long wondered why humans tend to be cooperative and are willing to make sacrifices to sustain cooperation. We pay taxes, stop at red lights, help elderly neighbors — and dislike and are willing to punish those who violate these social norms. Psychologists have debated whether this occurs naturally or arises during socialization.

Dunham and Fan Yang, a Yale postdoc, designed a series of experiments to determine whether the very young — who by definition are not contributing members of a group — share this feeling about freeloaders.

Children from ages 4 to 10 were presented with scenarios in which they had to give up chocolates in order to get a cake or plant seeds in a garden to get tomatoes. All children expressed dislike for those who did not contribute and were even willing to give up stickers to punish them. The youngest subjects exhibited a stronger aversion to free-riders than 9- and 10-year-olds.

However, when a freeloader has a good excuse for not contributing — e.g. her pet ate her chocolate — the aversion was greatly reduced, the researchers report.

“Even young children expect cooperation and are willing to work to sustain it even at cost to themselves,” Dunham said. “I find this very positive. The seeds that sustain cooperation seem to emerge early on, and while as a society we need to sustain and nurture these values, we may not need to instill them in the first place.”
