Definisi
Sara Algoe and Jonathan Haidt incorporate admiration in the category of other exuberant emotions, in addition to admiration, altitude, and gratitude. They suggest that admiration is the emotion we feel for non-moral excellence (ie, witnessing excellent acting skills), while improvement is the emotion we feel toward moral excellence (ie witnessing a person performing acts beyond virtue). Other authors refer to these two emotions as admiration, distinguishing between admiration for skill and benevolence toward virtue. Richard Smith categorizes admiration as the emotion of assimilation that focuses on others, directing people to aspire to be like (assimilate with) the people they admire. He distinguishes admiration with envy (other focused emotions), suggesting that envy makes us feel frustrated about the competence of others, while awe inspiring and motivating.

Function
Learning skills are so important to our evolution that we feel positive about talented or skilled people, to approach them and imitate their actions. Admiration is an emotion that facilitates learning in social groups.
Relation with achievement capabilities
Following from the view that the function of admiration is learning and self-improvement, some authors have proposed that admiration will only be active when we believe the increase is possible for us, but an empirical study has suggested the opposite, admiration is similar to the passive recollection of another advantage, while envy is an active motivating emotion when better performance can be achieved by us.

Self-engaging behavior
Admiration is also associated with a tendency to praise actions that others admire, and a desire for contact and closeness to the admired.
Group-based
Admiration has also been studied in the context of intergroup by Susan Fiske and her colleagues. They suggest that admiration is the emotion we feel toward social groups that we feel as competent (or high-status) and warm (friendly and cooperative) (eg, in a study involving students in the US, examples of groups that are considered competent and warm are English ). Admiration relates to the intention to mingle, work with, and help members of the admirable group.
