• The present study was designed to clarify whether and how helping behavior under negative feelings would be motivated by the desire to compensate negative feelings. The main findings were as follows: In Experiment I, the subjects in positive experience condition helped significantly faster than the subjects in negative experience condition. In Experiment II, the rate of acceptance of the request for help varied according to the amount of the cost of helping in the positive experience condition. In the negative experience condition, however, the rate of acceptance was not influenced by the amount of the cost. In particular, the request for help with high cost was not always refused. From these results it was inferred that the helping behavior under negative feelings would be motivated by the desire to avoid further self-image reduction caused by refusing a request for help.
