Kindness can be defined as actions intended to benefit others at a cost to oneself, which we can think of as an ABC model of kindness.
When deciding whether to be kind, individuals assess not just the cost and benefit of an action but the ratio of cost to benefit involved.
Kinder individuals tend to be more willing to incur higher costs to provide greater benefits, reflecting a different ratio for known versus unknown recipients.
The kindness quotient can be measured effectively through money-sharing tasks, allowing us to understand the willingness to pay for benefits to others.
