The Roles of Disliking, Deservingness, and Envy in Predicting Schadenfreude
Schadenfreude (pleasure about another's misfortune) was studied using written scenarios that were manipulated to include elements that elicited disliking of the target, envy of the target, and/or deservingness of the misfortune.

Study 1 created a large pool of scenarios based on a pilot study and had partici…

Participants recorded the most positive…
