Abstract
This study aimed to discover if the responses of hate are derived from the responses of anger, contempt, or dislike, or if hate is a distinct emotion characterized by its own responses. As part of a study on interpersonal negative emotions, participants were recruited online from an urban, East coast U.S state university and from Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk). They were asked to describe an experience of hate, anger, dislike or contempt, and fill out questionnaire items assessing the presence of the 38 hypothesized responses. Contrast t-tests, and hierarchical regressions found 13 hypothesized responses that may characterize hate as a distinct emotion. These findings may give researchers a better understanding of hate as an emotion in individuals, and future research can be done on instances of violence resulting from hate and how hate can potentially be averted.
