I dare invoke zimbardo that behavior is a product of structure, expectations and incentive.

If you treat people like morons they start behaving like them.

The reason (nuerotypical) people are studying in libraries and drunk in bars isn't because their fundamental constitution changes but instead, the context does.

So treat people right and they'll (mostly) reciprocate.

(I'm an exception to this rule somewhere on that vast spectrum. It's a handicap I assure you)
