Value whose defining goals are preserving and enhancing the welfare of the "in-group."
Derives from the requirement of smooth group functioning and need for affiliation. Emphasize voluntary concern for other's welfare.
Specific value items include: helpful, honest, forgiving, responsible, loyal, true friendship, mature love, sense of belonging, meaning in life, spiritual life.
Benevolence and [[conformity]] both promote cooperative and supportive social relations, but benevolence is motivated internally. ([note on p.7](zotero://open-pdf/library/items/3SWNKS8Q?page=7))
