A study shows that genetics could play a role in determining "niceness". The kind behavior is found to be linked to receptor genes for oxytopic and vasopressin. People that are more responsive to it are more inclined to donate money, pay taxes, give blood, report crime etc. It isn't about how much of the hormone you have but how responsive you are to it. Of course genetics isnt the only factor, if you are surrounded by nice people it is likely that it would rub off on you.
