Overwhelming evidence demonstrates the benefits of positive affect for various life and work outcomes. However, the relevant organizational research almost exclusively has focused on general positive affect, thereby implying that all positive affect has consistent and equal relationships with other work variables. The purpose of this presentation is to review and highlight research from basic psychology demonstrating the unique nature and correlates of specific positive emotions and to translate those ideas and findings into the organizational context. Specifically, I discuss three discrete positive emotions – pride, interest, and gratitude – and offer propositions regarding their differential effects on relevant workplace outcomes and regarding the differential antecedents of them. My hope is that this effort stimulates future research on this topic, and I offer specific research strategies and ideas to facilitate those endeavors.
