And they consider the benefit to them of knowing they're doing the right thing, even when it doesn't otherwise benefit them, as being better for them than not doing it.

I was including the benefit of knowing they are doing the right thing in the calculation (or if you want to get technical, my estimation of their estimation of this benefit), when I said "even when the personal benefit of not doing the right thing would be greater then the benefit of not doing the right thing."
