Romanian national culture is a complex set of values, customs, traditions, arts and institutions specific to the Romanian people. It is based on a long and diverse history that includes influences from several cultures such as Dacian, Roman, Slavic and Ottoman. Patterns of prosocial behavior in national culture refer to the types of behaviors considered prosocial and accepted or expected in a particular culture. Studying patterns of prosocial behavior in a culture can provide insights into how the culture may influence the prosocial behaviors of its members and provide insights into approaches to developing prosocial behavior.
