dc.description.abstractAround the globe, people enjoy watching the misfortunes of others on diverse media channels. But: Why do we laugh when seeing others suffer? Schadenfreude, the pleasure at the misfortunes of others (van Dijk & Ouwerkerk, 2014), is a complex emotion worth studying. First, based on a thorough literature review, a model of schadenfreude in media psychology is presented that combines individual and social appraisal processes. We then provide evidence for the model in three studies using observational and survey methods (N1 = 424, N2 = 33, N3 = 276) and reveal associated intrapersonal and social components that foster the display of schadenfreude in media reception. Snippets of casting show failures and fail clips were used as stimulus material. Study 1 studied the individual appraisals of responsibility, moral deservingness and perceived harm alongside the personality trait of belief in a just world. Study 2 and 3 investigated the role of interpersonal communication and social appraisals during the reception situation. Study 3 additionally varied whether the situation involved known peers or strangers. The results support key factors in the model and the vital role of deservingness (individual appraisal) and social norms (social appraisals) for the display and enjoyment of schadenfreude in media reception. We conclude with implications for further investigation of schadenfreude in media and non-media settings, discussing emotion regulation, enjoyment and norms of shared emotions.de_CH
