ABSTRACT
As an important concept for the world today, oneness has been a topic of several philosophical teachings and scientific disciplines. Considering the types of problems humanity is facing in different spheres of life, we thought it is worthwhile to ask what might be some daily examples that reflected oneness in behavioral terms. As part of our query that required completion of six separate studies, we have come up with a behavioral scale comprised of two factors. Focus on one’s self reflected acting based solely on one’s own needs and interests, consideration of the other represented behaving by taking into consideration who is also present in one’s environment.
