Amos has just received a good grade on his calculus exam. He’s in a great mood, and thinks to himself, “School’s going well; my relationship with Carrie is going great. It’s a wonderful world!” On the way out of the building, he finds that a bicyclist has hit a pedestrian, so he hurries over to help the fallen person. This example best illustrates which of the three reasons why positive mood enhances helping?
a.   Good moods make us look on the brighter side of life, so we make more dispositional attributions of others.
b.   We are motivated to prolong our good moods, and helping does that.
c.   Good moods enhance self-esteem, which leads to helping.
d.   Good moods decrease self-attention, increasing the odds that we will notice another’s distress.
