Elevation, in the context of emotion, refers to a positive emotional response that individuals experience when they encounter acts of kindness, moral beauty, or inspiring behavior. It is often described as a feeling of upliftedness or a warm, expansive sensation in the chest. Elevation tends to provoke feelings of admiration and a desire to emulate the virtuous behaviors that inspired it. Psychological research shows that elevation can motivate people to engage in prosocial behavior, such as helping others or committing acts of kindness.
