Researchers at Newcastle University set up the experiment in secret, so collegues in their department would not change their behaviour.

Individuals had to cooperate for the good of the group,rather than act selfishly. “Theres an argument that if nobody is watching us it is in our interests to behave selfishly. But when w

27、,and that might be because eyes send a strong biological signal we have evolved (进化)to respond to. ”The finding,which researchers believe sheds light on our evolutionary past,could be turned to practical use.
