Abstract
The emotional state of being moved, though frequently referred to in both classical rhetoric and current language use, is far from established as a well-defined psychological construct. In a series of three studies, we investigated eliciting scenarios, emotional ingredients, appraisal patterns, feeling qualities, and the affective signature of being moved and related emotional states. The great majority of the eliciting scenarios can be assigned to significant relationship and critical life events (especially death, birth, marriage, separation, and reunion). Sadness and joy turned out to be the two preeminent emotions involved in episodes of being moved. Both the sad and the joyful variants of being moved showed a coactivation of positive and negative affect and can thus be ranked among the mixed emotions. Moreover, being moved, while featuring only low-to-mid arousal levels, was experienced as an emotional state of high intensity; this applied to responses to fictional artworks no less than to own-life and other real, but media-represented, events. The most distinctive findings regarding cognitive appraisal dimensions were very low ratings for causation of the event by oneself and for having the power to change its outcome, along with very high ratings for appraisals of compatibility with social norms and self-ideals. Putting together the characteristics identified and discussed throughout the three studies, the paper ends with a sketch of a psychological construct of being moved.

In a series of three studies, we investigated eliciting scenarios, emotional ingredients, appraisal patterns, feeling qualities, and the affective signature of being moved and related emotional states. The great majority of the eliciting scenarios can be assigned to significant relationship and critical life events (especially death, birth, marriage, separation, and reunion). Sadness and joy turned out to be the two preeminent emotions involved in episodes of being moved. Both the sad and the joyful variants of being moved showed a coactivation of positive and negative affect and can thus be ranked among the mixed emotions. Moreover, being moved, while featuring only low-to-mid arousal levels, was experienced as an emotional state of high intensity; this applied to responses to fictional artworks no less than to own-life and other real, but media-represented, events. The most distinctive findings regarding cognitive appraisal dimensions were very low ratings for causation of the event by oneself and for having the power to change its outcome, along with very high ratings for appraisals of compatibility with social norms and self-ideals. Putting together the characteristics identified and discussed throughout the three studies, the paper ends with a sketch of a psychological construct of being moved.</p></abstract><funding-group><funding-statement>The data acquisition was performed with the help of a research grant (409) by the research cluster "Languages of Emotion" (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.loe.fu-berlin.de/">http://www.loe.fu-berlin.de/</ext-link>) that is part of Freie Universität Berlin and is itself sponsored by a research grant (EXC 302) of Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.dfg.de/en/index.jsp">http://www.dfg.de/en/index.jsp</ext-link>).

In this context, many recipes for achieving this goal have been suggested, yet the very meaning of the concept of <italic>being moved</italic> was never defined. Eighteenth-century aesthetics frequently used the concept when discussing the enjoyment of negative emotions, specifically in art contexts (for a survey, see [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref004" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>] and [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref005" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>], pp. 33–35). Thus Schiller wrote: “Being moved, rigorously understood, designates the mixed sentiment of suffering and the pleasure taken in this suffering” ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref006" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>], p. 150; our translation). Regardless of its preeminent role in aesthetics from the eighteenth century well into the twentieth, the notion of being moved has never been solely confined to the realm of art. Today it is fairly common in many languages, both Western and non-Western [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>], to speak of being emotionally moved by a ceremony, an event of personal significance, and many other eliciting scenarios.</p><p>In psychological research on emotions, the concept of being moved has attracted only scant attention. A recent entry in the <italic>Oxford Companion to Emotion and the Affective Sciences</italic> laconically states that being moved is still “ill-understood” [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref008" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>]. Many authors conceive of being moved primarily as an emotion experienced in situations of art reception (see also [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref009" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref014" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>]). Tokaji [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref015" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>] conducted one of the few studies that explicitly focused on <italic>kandoh</italic>, the approximate Japanese equivalent of being moved. Following up on a 1999 survey in which participants reported joy (73.2%) and sadness (40.6%) as two key ingredients of being moved, Tokaji showed that, depending on different framings, the very same private video can be perceived as either very sad <italic>and</italic> very moving or as very joyful <italic>and</italic> very moving. In a study that investigated the predictive power of a set of appraisal patterns and action-readiness states for distinguishing emotion terms, Frijda, Kuipers, and ter Schure [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref016" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>] identified <italic>pleasantness</italic>, <italic>certainty</italic>, <italic>suddenness</italic>, <italic>importance</italic>, and <italic>other agency</italic> as the most distinctive appraisal patterns and <italic>approaching</italic> and <italic>attending</italic> as the most distinctive action-readiness states of being moved. Scherer and colleagues [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref017" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>] reported tears as cooccurring with states of being moved, and Benedek and Kaernbach [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref018" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>] suggested that piloerection may (also) be a physiological indicator for the state of being moved. Using the method of free association, a recent study was the first to identify a list of prototypical elicitors [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>], most notably events related to birth, death, weddings, separations, children, film and music. Several other studies have mentioned being moved only in passing [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref019" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref024" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>]. Furthermore, studies on nostalgia [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref025" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref028" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>] and poignancy [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref029" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref030" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>] have occasionally touched on the concept of being moved, but without discussing it in any detail.</p><sec id="sec002"><title>Preliminary Observations and Assumptions</title><p>As already shown by both Tokaji (15) and Kuehnast and colleagues [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>], episodes of being moved can be elicited by a great variety of partly antithetical elicitors (births and deaths, weddings and separations, etc.). Additionally, an exemplary microanalysis [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref031" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>] of a highly moving film scene revealed that a very short emotionally moving episode can feature a high within-episode variance of emotional ingredients, ranging from suspense, anxious expectation, hope, feelings of devastation to empathy and respect. The very linguistic concept of being moved almost exclusively focuses on how the emotional state is subjectively felt—rather than on intentional objects, physiological implications, motivational consequences, etc. The concept shares this focus on the subjective feeling component with a set of other emotion terms (such as <italic>being excited</italic> or <italic>being gripped</italic>) that are likewise applied to a relatively broad range of eliciting events while also featuring multiple emotional ingredients. For reasons to be given later, our studies focused on the following emotion terms conforming to this typological description: <italic>being moved</italic> [bewegt sein], <italic>being touched</italic> [berührt sein], <italic>being stirred</italic> [gerührt sein], <italic>being excited</italic> [aufgeregt sein], <italic>being gripped</italic> [gepackt sein], <italic>being elevated</italic> [sich emotional erhoben fühlen], and <italic>being shattered</italic> [erschüttert sein]; we also included a German term [ergriffen sein] for which there is no equivalent special term in English. Given that the Duden [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref032" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>] defines the meaning of this term as “im Innersten bewegt sein” [to be moved in one’s innermost being]; we translated it—after consultation with native English speakers with a very good command of German—as “being deeply moved”.</p><p>In Study 1, we investigated the emotional states of <italic>being moved</italic>, <italic>being touched</italic>, and <italic>being stirred</italic> with regard to eliciting events, emotional ingredients, cognitive appraisal patterns, affective nature, and intensity. Simultaneously we focused on the differences across these emotional states dependent on three types of eliciting scenarios: own-life events, media-represented real events, and fictional events (typically represented by artworks). Drawing on free association and semantic differential data and using a variety of statistical methods, Studies 2 and 3 expanded the number and range of the emotional states under scrutiny and included all eight emotional states listed above. This allowed us to test the hypothesis that four of them—<italic>being moved</italic>, <italic>being touched</italic>, <italic>being stirred</italic>, and <italic>being deeply moved</italic>—constitute a broadly homogeneous group. This hypothesis was based on the finding that in Study 1 being moved, being touched und and being stirred showed only little differences and in many regards no differences at all. We extended this hypothesis to <italic>being deeply moved</italic> [ergriffen sein], because the Duden (32) characterizes it as a synonym of <italic>being moved</italic>. We note that in reporting our results, we occasionally use the term <italic>being moved</italic> not just as one of the four near-synonyms, but also as a concept that vicariously stands in for all of the four terms under investigation and hence serves as an umbrella term for what we call <italic>the being-moved group</italic>. We have been careful to make the contexts unambiguous with respect to these different uses of our study’s key term.</p><p>Based on these preliminary observations and assumptions, we asked the following research questions:
<list list-type="bullet"><list-item><p>RQ1. What are the prototypical eliciting events/scenarios, the most pertinent appraisal patterns, and the affective nature (valence, arousal, intensity) characteristic of the emotional states of being moved?</p></list-item><list-item><p>RQ2.

What are the subjective feeling qualities of being moved when compared with other select emotional states?</p></list-item><list-item><p>RQ4. How convergent or distinct are being moved, being touched, and so on?</p></list-item></list></p><p>Regarding further dimensions of being moved (bodily expressions, physiological markers, and motivational tendencies), already available evidence is referred to in the discussion sections. In the final general discussion, all aspects are integrated into a tentative comprehensive construct of being moved. Both this sketch of a construct and the preceding studies are informed by the understanding that emotional episodes prototypically feature cognitive appraisal patterns, a specific affective signature, physiological, expressive and motivational components, and a subjective feeling dimension [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref012" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref033" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref034" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>]. While this understanding is widely shared across different emotion theories, we more specifically refer to the Affective Space model, because it entails special provisions for a mixed affective nature of an emotion state [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref035" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref036" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>].</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec003"><title>Study 1</title><p>We first conducted an exploratory study aimed at identifying eliciting scenarios, prototypical emotional ingredients (RQ2), cognitive appraisal patterns, affective valence, and intensity (RQ1) of emotional responses that are perceived as moving, touching, or stirring. The study was performed using the Geneva Appraisal Questionnaire (GAQ; see below) with several theory-guided additions and modifications. Given that the emotion terms under scrutiny have a specifically strong tradition in the contexts of poetics and aesthetics, Study 1 placed a special emphasis on possible differences between variants of being moved, touched, or stirred depending on whether the eliciting scenarios were own-life events, media-represented real events, or fictional events.</p><sec id="sec004"><title>Method</title><sec id="sec005"><title>Ethics statement</title><p>All three studies were conducted in full accordance with the World Medical Association’s <italic>Declaration of Helsinki</italic> and the <italic>Ethical Guidelines</italic> of the German Association of Psychologists (DGPs). Formal ethics approvals for the type of research reported in this paper are required neither by these guidelines nor by German laws. Moreover, by the time the data were acquired (2010–2012) it was also customary neither at Freie Universität Berlin nor at most other German universities to seek ethics approvals for simple behavioral studies. The studies were evaluated by the authors not to create any harm or distress to the participants. Under this assumption—which according to the German laws is at the full discretion of the authors and for which they hence assume full responsibility—and in line with the above-mentioned rules and customary procedures, a formal ethics approval or a waiver of such an approval were not required and hence not requested. The studies exclusively made use of completely anonymous questionnaires; as a result, no identifying information was obtained from participants. The participants were explicitly informed about the tasks they were expected to perform (i.e., rating emotionally moving experiences on various scales or listing associations regarding these experiences), the anonymity of the data obtained through these tasks, the fully voluntary nature of their participation, and their right to withdraw from the study at any time. Thus, participation was based on implicit rather than explicit informed consent; non-consenting individuals did not produce any data or returned no or empty questionnaires. We did not record this type of consent in accordance with the rules for dispensing with recording/documenting informed consent that are stipulated in § C.III.6 of the Ethical Guidelines of the German Association of Psychologists [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref037" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>]. In each study one participant stated to be age 17. Given the full anonymity of the data obtained, there was no way for us to obtain parental consent for these participants. We therefore decided to withdraw these data sets from the studies.</p></sec><sec id="sec006"><title>Participants</title><p>Two hundred and twenty-eight students participated in this paper-and-pencil study (145 females, 77 males, and 6 without a statement). The mean age was 24.7 years (<italic>SD</italic> = 6.04, min = 19, max = 54, 7 without a statement). One hundred and ninety-six participants were native German speakers, 6 were bilingual, and 18 were nonnative speakers of German (for 8 participants, no data were available; analyses restricted to the data for the native speakers of German essentially yielded the same results). The questionnaire was handed out after an unrelated study (59 participants), and additional students were approached in the university building and asked whether they would volunteer to participate in a fully anonymous questionnaire study (169 participants). Participants from the first group either were paid 7 EUR or received course credit for participating; those from the second group received a university cafeteria coffee voucher. Two participants did not provide an event description (see below) and were excluded from the analyses.</p><p>Based on the nature of the emotionally moving episodes participants recalled as reference point for their subsequent ratings, we distinguished three subgroups of participants depending on whether the events that elicited their feelings were own-life experiences, media-represented real events, or (fictional) artworks. For details about how we implemented this subdivision, see <xref rid="pone.0128451.s010" ref-type="supplementary-material">S1 Text</xref>.</p></sec><sec id="sec007"><title>Questionnaire and procedure</title><p>We used the German version of the GAQ (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.affective-sciences.org/researchmaterial">http://www.affective-sciences.org/researchmaterial</ext-link>) with slight modifications. The study consisted of three parts. First, three sub-groups of the participants were asked to recall an emotionally <italic>moving</italic> [bewegend], <italic>stirring</italic> [rührend], or <italic>touching</italic> [berührend] event, respectively, and to describe the event in a few sentences. A previous study had already arrived at a first list of elicitors by asking for free one word-associations regarding the concept of “being moved” [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>]. For the present study we expected that collecting short event descriptions would allow for a more nuanced analysis.</p><p>Second, the participants were asked to answer several questions regarding this event and their emotional response to it on 5-point Likert rating scales. Most of these questions tapped into cognitive appraisal dimensions of the emotional states (such as novelty, intrinsic pleasantness, goal conduciveness, causation, coping potential, norm compatibility, and so on; see [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref012" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>]). Participants also had the option of judging each appraisal-related question to be not applicable. Regarding the affective nature of being moved, we inserted two extra questions. The original GAQ exclusively asks participants to appraise how pleasant and unpleasant the event they recalled was. However, unpleasant events do not necessarily translate into unpleasant feelings—most notably, in art contexts [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref038" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref039" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>]—and the concept of being moved has been involved in discussions about this phenomenon in aesthetics. We therefore also asked for separate unipolar ratings of how pleasant <italic>and</italic> unpleasant the respective emotional episode actually felt. This enabled us to not only measure reciprocal activations, but also potential coactivations of positive and negative affect (mixed affect) regarding how the emotional states under scrutiny were subjectively experienced ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref040" ref-type="bibr">40</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref041" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>]; on the broader issue of mixed emotions see also [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref036" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref042" ref-type="bibr">42</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref046" ref-type="bibr">46</xref>]).</p><p>Third, the participants were asked to describe their emotional responses in their own words and then to indicate which emotions they had experienced in the emotional episode they had recalled as an instance of being emotionally moved. For this purpose, they could either choose from a list of 16 emotion terms (we added <italic>fascination</italic> [Faszination] and <italic>relief</italic> [Erleichterung] to the 14 emotions given in the original GAQ) or indicate that none of these were applicable.</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec008"><title>Results and Discussion</title><p>Preliminary analyses showed that the GAQ data yielded very strong overlaps for <italic>being moved</italic>, <italic>being stirred</italic>, and <italic>being touched</italic> (RQ 3). There were no significant differences in the frequency distribution of event descriptions (χ<sup>2</sup> = 10.98, <italic>df</italic> = 10, <italic>p</italic> = .36) or in the distribution of experienced emotions (χ<sup>2</sup> = 27.65, <italic>df</italic> = 30, <italic>p</italic> = .59). Regarding the rating scales, we found a significant effect of the emotional state only for <italic>duration of feeling</italic>, with lower values for episodes of <italic>being stirred</italic>. Given this near-convergence, we ended up deciding to treat the three emotional states—at least as far as the GAQ data are concerned—as <italic>one</italic> broadly homogeneous group of emotions consisting of highly overlapping variants, and hence to collapse the data for the three variants while postponing the issue of their subtle differences to Studies 2 and 3. In what follows we both report and discuss the data obtained on eliciting events, emotional ingredients, cognitive appraisal patterns, affective valence, and intensity.</p><sec id="sec009"><title>Eliciting events</title><p>The brief descriptions participants gave of the emotional episodes they recalled as particularly moving were analyzed with a focus on extracting eliciting events. To this end, two of the authors developed a categorization scheme with a general level and a finer sublevel (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.t001" ref-type="table">Table 1</xref>, Columns 1 and 2). On the general level, six categories of events were extracted: critical life events, relationship events, political events, nature-related events, art-related events, and miscellaneous events. One of the authors and a research assistant categorized the descriptions. The inter-rater reliability for the event classification was κ = 0.68 for the high-level classification and κ = 0.61 for the sublevel classification.

Considering the prototypical elicitors identified above—birth, marriage, death, and funerals—, all clearly activate prosocial feelings of attachment (bonding), empathy (joyful or sad), and compassion. Based on our data, we therefore suggest that the norm- and ideal-related implications of being moved do not bear on a widely unspecified range of “positive core values” as advocated in a recent philosophical account [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref048" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>], but rather have a fairly circumscribed focus on prosocial norms and self-ideals. Apparently they do not, for instance, include what many people may regard as a “positive core value” of an intimate personal relationship, namely, sexual love; rather, they are limited to affiliative types of social bonding. These range from feelings of attachment to family and friends to similar feelings towards larger and more abstract social entities, such as one’s country or social and religious communities. Konečni and colleagues [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref010" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref011" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref049" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>] had already suggested that being moved is frequently caused by “acts of forgiveness, sacrifice, and generosity” ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref010" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>] p. 33) and hence by witnessing highly esteemed acts of a prosocial nature (for further suggestions in this direction see [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref018" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref024" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref025" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>]). Moreover, being emotionally moved has been shown to entail action-readiness states of approach and attendance [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref016" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>] and to facilitate prosocial acts of bonding and helping ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref008" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref050" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>], but see [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref011" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>]). Thus, the high means of the cognitive appraisals of prosocial norms and self-ideals for being moved, touched, or stirred appear to occasionally even shape a motivational component, or action tendency, of these feeling states. Accordingly, it is very difficult to imagine how egoistic behavior might be represented in an emotionally moving fashion. A recent neurobiological model of emotions likewise suggests that being moved is an attachment emotion [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref051" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>].</p><p>Questions regarding whether the participants had <italic>intended</italic> or <italic>caused the event</italic> and whether they had the <italic>power to modify the consequences</italic> had the lowest means across all three groups (2.39, 2.21, and 2.00, respectively). Accordingly, in prototypical cases of joyfully moving events—such as births, wedding ceremonies, and reunions—those who are moved by the event do not, as a rule, cause it but rather only witness it, and they neither need nor wish to change it. In prototypical cases of sadly moving events—such as funerals of beloved persons—those who are moved by the event are similarly not its cause and do not have the power to change it. Based on this finding, we suggest that episodes of being moved, touched, or stirred are closely tied to the position of a sentient experiencer or witness (cf. [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref008" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>]). In line with the low ratings for one’s own agency, the <italic>coping potential</italic> appraisal was rated by an outstandingly high number of participants (22.4%) as not even applicable (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.s012" ref-type="supplementary-material">S3 Text</xref>).</p><p>Regarding differences dependent on event-types, ratings for <italic>causation by others</italic> were lower for the fictional events group than for the two real events groups. Ratings for <italic>causation by one’s own behavior</italic> were higher for the fictional events group than for the media-represented real events group. Appraisals for <italic>intended by oneself</italic> had higher levels for the fictional events group than for the other two groups, but by trend only. The means for the Consequences appraisal <italic>desirable outcomes</italic> were lower for the media-represented real events than for the own-life and fictional events groups. These data are in line with both predictions for art-elicited emotions [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref012" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>] and studies on the effects of the cognitive schema of art [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref038" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref039" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>]. We suggest that these differential appraisal profiles reflect the fact that exposure to artworks is typically self-sought—and in this sense also intended and even caused by oneself—and that it entails personal safety and control over the situation [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref052" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref053" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>], and is thus less prone to undesirable outcomes than are responses to own-life and media-represented real events.</p><p>Our results are difficult to compare with those of Frijda and colleagues [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref016" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>]. With the exception of the <italic>other agency</italic> appraisal for which both studies yielded similar results, the appraisal dimensions for which we obtained the most distinctive ratings were not included in Frijda’s questionnaire: compatibility with social norms, compatibility with self-ideals, and the role of one’s own intention.</p></sec><sec id="sec012"><title>Affective valence (positive, negative, mixed affect)</title><p>The pleasantness and unpleasantness ratings were analyzed separately for the episodes of being moved, touched, or stirred in which participants reported either feelings of sadness (for short, we refer to these as episodes of <italic>being sadly moved</italic>, 86 participants) or of joy (for short, we refer to these as episodes of <italic>being joyfully moved</italic>, 48 participants). Episodes of being joyfully moved showed an almost identical affective signature in all three events groups. Positive affect was far higher than negative affect (positive vs. negative affect was 4.4 vs. 1.4, 4.4 vs. 1.7, and 4.3 vs. 1.2 for the own-life events, media-represented real events, and fictional events groups, respectively; <italic>F</italic> < 1 for the interaction of affect rating and event group). Regarding the episodes of being sadly moved, we found a significant interaction of affect rating and event group (<italic>F</italic>(2, 65) = 4.34, <italic>p</italic> < .05): negative affect strongly prevailed over positive affect in the own-life events group (4.1 vs. 1.5, <italic>t</italic>(24) = −6.7, <italic>p</italic> < .001) and in the media-represented real events group (3.6 vs. 1.7, <italic>t</italic>(19) = −5.1, <italic>p</italic> < .001). By contrast, in the fictional events group, levels of negative and positive affect were nearly equal (3.2 vs. 2.4, <italic>t</italic>(22) = −1.5, <italic>p</italic> = .16) and the mean level of positive affect was far higher in this group than in the other two event-type groups (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.g003" ref-type="fig">Fig 3</xref>). This result is all the more remarkable, as the percentage of feelings of sadness involved in episodes of being moved was highest in the fictional events group. Accordingly, when calculating a mixed-affect (MA) score according to the formula MA = minimum (positive valence, negative valence) [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref040" ref-type="bibr">40</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref041" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>], we found a significant effect for the group variable, with the fictional events group having a higher MA score than both the own-life events and the media-represented real events groups (1.92 vs. 1.54 and 1.44, respectively; <italic>t</italic>(151) = 2.16, <italic>p</italic> < .05 for fictional vs. own-life; and <italic>t</italic>(101) = 2.69, <italic>p</italic> < .01 for fictional vs. media-represented real events).</p><fig id="pone.0128451.g003" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0128451.g003</object-id><label>Fig 3</label><caption><title>Frequencies of sadly and joyfully moving events and the means of their negative and positive affects.</title><p>The percentages of participants who reportedly experienced sadness or joy in a moving situation (grey and white bars, respectively; left axis) are depicted for each group.

Consider the two elicitors funerals and reunions. Funerals, while deeply sad, also commemorate and honor the deceased person; moreover, they revitalize social and affective bonds among the survivors. Similarly, a reunion after a long separation, while deeply joyful, can also bring up reminiscences of the uncertainties and feelings of separation experienced in the meantime. The data regarding mixed affect scores are likewise in line with studies on the seemingly paradoxical enjoyment of sad films [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref031" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref054" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref056" ref-type="bibr">56</xref>]. One of these studies [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref055" ref-type="bibr">55</xref>] revealed a clear positivity bias that appears to be an inherent feature of all episodes, including deeply sad ones, of being moved in art reception. The assumption that an emotionally moving artwork is a good and enjoyable artwork <italic>by virtue of</italic> being emotionally moving underlies the prominent role that being moved has had in aesthetics ever since Descartes’ statement “The soul takes pleasure in feeling itself moved by passions regardless of what nature they are, provided it remains in control of them” ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref057" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>], p. 200). Where the requirement of personal safety and control over the situation is met—as is typically the case in art reception [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref038" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref039" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref052" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref058" ref-type="bibr">58</xref>]—episodes of being sadly moved may allow individuals to sense their own emotional capacities and dispositions in a particularly “lively” fashion (cf. [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref059" ref-type="bibr">59</xref>]). Panksepp similarly suggested that deeply moving music coactivates emotions of sadness and joy “in such a way as to magnify our sense of ourselves as deeply feeling creatures” [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref025" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>], p. 198].</p><p>The Evaluative Space Model [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref036" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>] suggests that coactivation of positive and negative affect comes in two forms: strictly <italic>parallel</italic> evaluative processing of the positive and negative features of a single stimulus or event, or <italic>oscillations</italic> between positive and negative response dimensions such that both dimensions are repeatedly activated over an extended period of time. The gazelle that must approach the water to drink even though it also expects lions to be near the water is a classic example of simultaneous coactivation of positive and negative evaluation and of the resulting ambivalence between appetitive and aversive tendencies. The two prototypical examples for sad and joyful episodes of being moved given above (i.e., funerals and reunions) belong, rather, to the oscillation type of coactivation. Mixed emotional episodes of this type consist of emotional trajectories in which, for the most part, the various emotional ingredients do not strictly cooccur; rather, they come into the foreground at some points during the episode and recede into the background at others. In such cases, thus, positive and negative response dimensions alternate over time without, however, being set apart to a degree that prevents their integration into an overall mixed-feeling state.</p></sec><sec id="sec013"><title>Intensity</title><p>Intensity ratings were consistently very high; the overall mean was 2.74 (sd = 0.45; note that due to a formatting error, a 3-point scale was used for the intensity ratings instead of a 5-point scale). Intensity ratings for episodes of being joyfully moved were not significantly different between the event groups (<italic>F</italic> < 1; 2.8, 2.4, and 2.5, for the own-life, the media-represented real and the fictional events group, respectively). For the episodes of being sadly moved, the ANOVA revealed an effect of the event group variable (<italic>F</italic>(2,81) = 7.0, <italic>p</italic> < .01): mean intensity ratings were lower for the media-represented real events group than for the own-life and the fictional events groups (2.5, 2.9, and 2.9, respectively).</p><p>Across all event groups, the levels of reported intensity were slightly higher for the sad than for the joyful variants of being moved. This may be read as supporting the notion that “bad is stronger than good” (cf.[<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref060" ref-type="bibr">60</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref064" ref-type="bibr">64</xref>]). On a similar note, a study by Konečni and colleagues [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref011" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>] reported that participants experienced chills in response to narratives about prosocial acts only in cases where these acts were not successful and thus had a sad ending. The high intensity ratings obtained in the present study are, moreover, in line with the little that is known regarding the physiological components of being moved. A study using sadly moving film clips reported a highly positive correlation between degrees of being moved and ratings of the “tear factor” of the clips, as well as of actual innervations to shed tears ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref055" ref-type="bibr">55</xref>]; see also [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref010" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>]). These data resonate with the idiomatic expression “to be moved to tears” which is present in both English and German (“zu Tränen gerührt sein”). Given that tears send a directly observable communicative signal of emotional affect to observers, they can also be considered to constitute an expressive dimension of being moved. The physiological response of chills (specifically as associated with piloerection) has also been suggested to be an at least occasional correlate of episodes of being moved [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref018" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>].</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec014"><title>Summary</title><p>Combining our findings regarding eliciting events, emotional ingredients, cognitive appraisal patterns, affective valence, and intensity patterns, we propose the following preliminary definition: Episodes of being moved are intensely felt responses to scenarios that have a particularly strong bearing on attachment-related issues—and hence on prosocial bonding tendencies, norms, and ideals—ranging from the innermost circle of one’s personal life (spouse, children, friends) to higher-order entities of social life (one’s country, social and religious communities). In all these instances, one’s own agency and causation by one’s own behavior have relatively little importance for the elicitation of feelings of being moved; rather, an (empathic) observer or witness perspective prevails.</p><p>Already these basic characteristics entail clear constraints on the emotional ingredients reported to be involved in episodes of being moved, the two preeminent ones being sadness and joy. Obviously, many episodes of joy and sadness do bear on one’s own agency and causation by one’s own behavior and do not involve strong prosocial feelings of the attachment type. However, if feelings of joy and sadness are to be eligible for and compatible with feelings of being moved, they must meet the additional constraints revealed by our data. Conforming to these extrapolations, winning in a lottery can be highly joyful but not moving, and similarly, losing a favorite piece of clothing can be sad but not moving. Moreover, episodes of being joyfully or sadly moved are, as a rule, not just joyful or sad, but are rather mixed in affective valence [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref021" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>]. Given that neither joy nor sadness share this affective signature, our data entail clear indications that the state of being moved is an emotional entity that cannot be reduced to special subgroups of sad and joyful emotion states, and that the fact that many languages designate this emotion state with a special term [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>] is likely to reflect its distinct character.</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec015"><title>Study 2</title><p>Study 2 explored the extent to which the three emotion terms investigated in Study 1 as a closely related group of synonyms (<italic>moving</italic>, <italic>touching</italic>, and <italic>stirring</italic>) and the term <italic>deeply moving</italic> [ergreifend], which the Duden likewise ranks among the synonyms of <italic>moving</italic> ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref065" ref-type="bibr">65</xref>], see also the remarks in the introductory section), can still be reliably distinguished from one another as well as from four other emotion terms (<italic>exciting</italic>, <italic>gripping</italic>, <italic>elevating</italic>, and <italic>shattering</italic>), specifically with regard to emotional ingredients (RQ2) and the overall dimensions of valence and arousal (RQ3). We resorted to the four additional emotion terms for two reasons. On the one hand, they appear to share with the other three terms the three characteristics identified in the section “Preliminary Observations and Assumptions”, i.e. they have a broad range of elicitors, involve multiple emotional ingredients, and place the conceptual focus on the subjective feeling dimension. On the other hand, we hypothesized that the four additional terms simultaneously differ from the being-moved terms in the important dimensions of valence and arousal. Specifically, we anticipated that <italic>shattering</italic> is more unambiguously negative and <italic>elevating</italic> is more unambiguously positive in affective valence compared to the being-moved terms, and that <italic>exciting</italic> and <italic>gripping</italic> are higher in arousal than these terms. (We did not find an emotion term that we anticipated to be significantly lower in arousal than the being-moved terms while also sharing the three characteristics mentioned above.)</p><p>In contrast to the closed-answer format used in Study 1 for the question of emotional ingredients, we employed free listing in Study 2. The verbal association technique of free listing is frequently used in anthropology and psycholinguistics to explore the concepts used in semantic domains in a certain group or culture. Usually, participants are assigned the task of listing as many words as possible for a specific semantic domain (e.g., colors), often in a limited period of time [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref066" ref-type="bibr">66</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref068" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>].</p><sec id="sec016"><title>Method</title><sec id="sec017"><title>Participants</title><p>A total of 1,683 students volunteered to participate in the study (1,087 women, 592 men, and 4 without a statement).

Students were asked whether or not they would volunteer to participate in the study. The instruction read: “Please remember moments that were emotionally V-ing (be it in real life or while watching movies, reading literature, at the theatre, at the opera, at the museum, …).” In place of <italic>V-ing</italic>, one of the following eight terms was inserted: <italic>moving</italic> [bewegend], <italic>stirring</italic> [rührend], <italic>touching</italic> [berührend], <italic>deeply moving</italic> [ergreifend], <italic>gripping</italic> [packend], <italic>exciting</italic> [aufregend], <italic>shattering</italic> [erschütternd], or <italic>elevating</italic> [erhebend]. The students’ task was to write down the emotions they had felt when experiencing the emotional state they were assigned to recall. The students were given two minutes to complete the task and were instructed to use exclusively nouns. We also asked the students to provide data on their gender, age, field of study, and native language.</p></sec><sec id="sec019"><title>Data analysis</title><p>The data were preprocessed as follows: The number of entries per participant—including all entries, even if some were excluded at a later point—was calculated. Then all unreadable entries were excluded. Finally, we preprocessed the data such that only words that were mentioned by at least 5% of the participants in one subsample were retained in the whole sample. We then calculated cross-tabulations for the frequency patterns, comparing the subsamples against one another (adjusting the alpha-level by the Bonferroni correction). Based on the frequency patterns, we calculated the overlapping coefficient [OVL], according to Marx ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref069" ref-type="bibr">69</xref>]; see also [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref070" ref-type="bibr">70</xref>]), between each pair of subsamples. The OVL is computed by summing all the lower relative frequencies in the two distributions for each of the <italic>j</italic> mentioned emotion words: <italic>OVL</italic>(A,B) = Σ<sub>j</sub> min[<italic>p</italic>(A<sub>j</sub>), <italic>p</italic>(B<sub>j</sub>)]. The resulting similarity matrix was further analyzed using metric multi-dimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis (average linkage method).</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec020"><title>Results</title><p>The eight samples produced a total of 7,874 entries, amounting to 1,184 different words. The number of entries ranged from 0 to 15 (96 participants made no entries at all and were excluded from further analysis), with a mean of <italic>M</italic> = 4.96 entries (<italic>SD</italic> = 2.50). Application of the cutoff criteria mentioned above resulted in 37 words, accounting for 4,640 entries (for details on the subsamples, see <xref rid="pone.0128451.t002" ref-type="table">Table 2</xref>). J<italic>oy</italic> and <italic>sadness/grief</italic> were the most frequently mentioned emotional ingredients (for all other details, see <xref rid="pone.0128451.s005" ref-type="supplementary-material">S2 Fig</xref>)</p><sec id="sec021"><title>Comparing frequencies</title><p>Comparisons of the frequency distribution for each subsample against all other subsamples (with Bonferroni-corrected alpha) revealed that <italic>moving</italic>, <italic>stirring</italic>, <italic>touching</italic>, and <italic>deeply moving</italic> showed no significant differences from one another, except for the pair <italic>moving</italic> and <italic>stirring</italic> (χ<sup>2</sup> = 69.41, <italic>df</italic> = 36, <italic>p</italic> < .05). In contrast, each of the remaining emotional states (<italic>exciting</italic>, <italic>elevating</italic>, <italic>shattering</italic>, and <italic>gripping</italic>) differed significantly from almost all others, again with one exception, here the pair <italic>moving</italic> and <italic>gripping</italic> (χ<sup>2</sup> = 63.3, <italic>df</italic> = 35, <italic>p</italic> = .067; see <xref rid="pone.0128451.t002" ref-type="table">Table 2</xref> for the complete results).</p><p>The OVLs for the subsamples are depicted in <xref rid="pone.0128451.t002" ref-type="table">Table 2</xref>. They turned out to be generally quite high. Of all terms, <italic>shattering</italic> and <italic>elevating</italic> showed the least overlap with the other concepts (OVLs ranging from .28 to .57 and from .28 to .72, respectively). The four core concepts, along with <italic>gripping</italic>, all had an overlap with each other of at least OVL = .80, whereas <italic>exciting</italic> had an only slightly lower OVL with these four concepts (ranging from .71 to .79).</p></sec><sec id="sec022"><title>Multi-dimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis</title><p>The hierarchical cluster analysis shows a core cluster of five emotion terms: <italic>touching</italic>, <italic>deeply moving</italic>, <italic>moving</italic>, <italic>gripping</italic>, and <italic>stirring</italic>, with the last term being at the relatively greatest distance from the other four terms. By contrast and just as unambiguously, <italic>exciting</italic>, <italic>elevating</italic>, and <italic>shattering</italic> are located in affective space at increasing distances from this core cluster (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.g004" ref-type="fig">Fig 4A</xref>). Furthermore, the horizontal and vertical axes can readily be interpreted as the valence and arousal dimensions. In order to test this interpretation, we calculated the valence and arousal score for each concept. To this end, we first looked up the valence and arousal scores reported by the Berlin Affective Word List (BAWL-R; [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref071" ref-type="bibr">71</xref>]) for each emotion term used to designate emotions experienced in a moving situation (the BAWL-R, however, offers word valence and arousal scores for only 59.5% of the emotion terms listed by the participants). Then we calculated the mean weighted by the frequency with which the relevant emotion was mentioned in the subsample. These valence and arousal scores were fitted into an MDS plot by regressing them on the MDS plot coordinates ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref072" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>], p. 77). For valence, there was a nearly perfect correlation between the calculated and predicted values (<italic>r</italic> = .991). This was not true for arousal (<italic>r</italic> = .432), indicating the unreliability of the fitting of the external arousal values. On the valence dimension, we found substantial differences between the eight concepts/emotional states; by contrast, the computations for arousal yielded only little variance (note the different axis scaling of the x- and y-axes in <xref rid="pone.0128451.g004" ref-type="fig">Fig 4B</xref>).</p><fig id="pone.0128451.g004" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0128451.g004</object-id><label>Fig 4</label><caption><title>Cluster analysis dendrograms and MDS plots for Study 2 and Study 3.</title><p>(A) Cluster analysis dendrogram for Study 2.

Regarding the distinctiveness of the eight concepts/emotional states (RQ4), the cross-tabulations and the OVLs as well as the MDS and hierarchical cluster analysis all indicate that the four concepts we assumed to form the core of the being-moved group are indeed, along with <italic>gripping</italic>, very closely associated in affective space. Furthermore, all these core concepts show slightly positive valence and low-to-mid affective arousal scores. Regarding the valence scores, it is important to keep in mind that they are collapsed across all variants of being moved and may represent an artifact, since the joyful variants are likely to show higher positive valence than the sad variants. Only <italic>elevating</italic> and <italic>shattering</italic>, respectively, had a significantly higher positive or negative valence score. Regarding arousal, our interpretation of the MDS suggests that episodes of being moved—which in Study 1 had been shown to be high in intensity across different elicitors and event types—are on average only of low-to-mid arousal (for the difference between affective intensity and affective arousal, see [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref073" ref-type="bibr">73</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref077" ref-type="bibr">77</xref>]). This combination of relatively low affective/emotional arousal and high intensity is likewise characteristic of one of the two key ingredients of being moved, namely, the emotion of sadness [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref076" ref-type="bibr">76</xref>]. (Note that we exclusively refer here to subjectively felt levels of both affective intensity and affective arousal, but not to <italic>physiological</italic> arousal as measured in an objective third person-perspective. Moreover, the indication—obtained through our interpretation of the MDS solution—that affective arousal for episodes of being moved is on average slightly below a medium level does by no means rule out the possibility that some episodes, such as those that elicit chills, could be well above mid-levels not just in physiological, but also in subjectively felt affective arousal.)</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec024"><title>Study 3</title><p>Study 3 investigated qualitative properties (phenomenological qualia) of how feeling states of being moved are subjectively experienced. It did so by collecting data on how episodes of being moved and of the other emotions under scrutiny are rated on a number of qualitative dimensions defined through a set of 40 pairs of semantically opposite adjectives (RQ3). Furthermore, it provided an opportunity for testing whether or not the data concerning emotional ingredients collected in Study 2 and the semantic differential data would yield a converging picture regarding affinities and differences between the respective emotional states (RQ4).</p><sec id="sec025"><title>Method</title><sec id="sec026"><title>Participants</title><p>Nine hundred and thirty students participated in this study. Recruitments of participants and the informed consent procedure were identical to Study 2. Twenty-nine participants who failed to correctly complete the task were excluded from the data analysis. Thus, in the end the sample consisted of 901 participants (467 women, 420 men, and 14 without a statement). The mean age was 22.4 years (<italic>SD</italic> = 3.92, min = 18, max = 63, 10 without statement). Six hundred and ninety nine participants were native German speakers, 14 were bilingual, and 179 were nonnative speakers of German (for 9 participants, no data were available; analyses restricted to the data for the native speakers of German essentially yielded the same results).</p></sec><sec id="sec027"><title>Stimuli</title><p>The words that designate the emotional feeling states served as stimuli. We used the past-participle form to designate the eight feeling states already investigated in Study 2 (<italic>moved</italic> [bewegt], <italic>touched</italic> [berührt], <italic>stirred</italic> [gerührt], <italic>deeply moved</italic> [ergriffen], <italic>excited</italic> [aufgeregt], <italic>gripped</italic> [gepackt], <italic>elevated</italic> [erhoben], and <italic>shattered</italic> [erschüttert]), adding the qualifying adverb “emotionally” to rule out a mechanistic reading of the words (e.g., <italic>emotionally moved</italic> [emotional bewegt], etc.). To provide reference points in affective space, the following prototypical emotions were also tested: <italic>joy</italic> [Freude], <italic>sadness</italic> [Traurigkeit], <italic>anger</italic> [Wut], <italic>envy</italic> [Neid], <italic>fear</italic> [Angst], <italic>disgust</italic> [Ekel], <italic>surprised</italic> [überrascht], and <italic>happy</italic> [glücklich]. We likewise included emotional states that appear somewhat similar (with regard to mixed affect, prosocial orientation, etc.) to the being-moved states, namely, <italic>admiration</italic> [Bewunderung], <italic>nostalgia</italic> [Nostalgie], and <italic>pity</italic> [Mitleid]. In order to check whether different grammatical forms cause differences in the results, we also tested, where applicable, other grammatical forms referring to the same feeling state (<italic>sad</italic> [traurig], <italic>to be delighted</italic> [sich freuen], <italic>to be afraid</italic> [sich fürchten], plus the only noun for one of the four being-moved terms that is available in German but not in English—<italic>Rührung</italic>, which is translated here as <italic>being stirred</italic><sub><italic>noun</italic></sub>.

In order to control for sequence effects between and within the adjective pairs, 10 random sequences of the 40 pairs were generated; for each sequence the left-right orientation of the pairs was

To test whether the results replicated those of Study 2 (MDS and cluster analysis), a subset restricted to the eight terms investigated in that study was used to calculate a dissimilarity matrix (Euclidean distances), which was subjected to the same analyses as in Study 2. The MDS solution was compared to the solution of Study 2 by Procrustes analysis. The similarity between the proximity matrix and the cluster dendrogram was also assessed by matrix comparison and comparison of the cophenetic correlation coefficients [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref081" ref-type="bibr">81</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref083" ref-type="bibr">83</xref>]. In order to locate the being-moved group in affective space, we calculated a proximity matrix for all 23 tested emotional terms (based on Euclidean distances) and subjected the matrix to an MDS and cluster analysis (average linkage method). Finally, we conducted an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) using principal axis factoring with promax rotation and determining the number of factors to be extracted by the parallel analysis [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref084" ref-type="bibr">84</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref086" ref-type="bibr">86</xref>].

The positive emotion cluster encompasses a (purely positive) joy/happiness cluster and a larger cluster of more-or-less mixed emotional states, of which the core being-moved terms form a separate sub-cluster (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.g004" ref-type="fig">Fig 4C</xref>) that also includes nostalgia.</p></sec><sec id="sec034"><title>Exploratory factor analysis</title><p>The EFA yielded six factors; however, an examination of the results revealed that the adjective pair <italic>hungry—sated</italic> [hungrig—satt] did not load on any factor, resulting in a commonality of <italic>h</italic><sup>2</sup> = 0.0077 for the pair.

Factor 3 shows high loadings of the scales <italic>hard—soft</italic>, <italic>solid—liquid</italic>, <italic>angular—round</italic>, <italic>rational—emotional</italic>, <italic>coarse—fine</italic>, <italic>masculine—feminine</italic>, and <italic>egoistic—altruistic</italic>. Factor 5 is a far weaker factor; only two scales (<italic>playful—serious</italic> and <italic>childlike—grown-up</italic>) show substantial loadings above 0.3.</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec035"><title>Discussion</title><p>Feelings of being moved were rated as wide rather than narrow, elevating rather than depressing, fine rather than coarse, warm rather than cold, open rather than closed, soft rather than hard, round rather than angular, feminine rather than masculine, and pleasant rather than unpleasant. Exploring the data using cluster analysis, multi-dimensional scaling, and factor analysis, we replicated the results of Study 2 and confirmed that the core of the being-moved group is formed by (<italic>being) moved</italic>, <italic>touched</italic>, <italic>stirred</italic>, and <italic>deeply moved</italic>. Projected onto two-dimensional affective space, these emotions form a coherent cluster located right in the middle between the emotions of sadness and joy. Importantly, a distribution analysis ruled out the possibility that the results for the being-moved terms might simply represent the mean of their most frequent emotional ingredients (sadness and joy) and lack a profile of their own (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.s014" ref-type="supplementary-material">S5 Text</xref>). This entire cluster is characterized by an overall slightly positive valence and a low-to-mid-level arousal pattern, while also featuring a broader valence distribution when compared to the other more prototypical emotions under scrutiny.</p><p>Along with the three classical dimensions of the affective space (valence, arousal, and dominance for Factors 1, 2, and 4, respectively), our factor analysis revealed two more dimensions: Factors 3 and 5 (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.t004" ref-type="table">Table 4</xref> and <xref rid="pone.0128451.g005" ref-type="fig">Fig 5</xref>). In the remainder of this discussion, we specifically focus on Factor 3, because it is particularly distinctive in light of our empirical data: The emotions of being moved, joy, and sadness loaded on one side of this factor, whereas the other emotions loaded on the opposite side (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.g005" ref-type="fig">Fig 5B</xref>). The factor shows high loadings of the scales <italic>hard—soft</italic>, <italic>solid—liquid</italic>, <italic>angular—round</italic>, <italic>rational—emotional</italic>, <italic>coarse—fine</italic>, <italic>masculine—feminine</italic>, and <italic>egoistical—altruistic</italic>. This set of semantic oppositions strongly resonates with how the older, more heroic semantics of being moved (for surveys of this tradition, see [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref087" ref-type="bibr">87</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref088" ref-type="bibr">88</xref>]) was replaced by a softer and more sentimental modern semantics that became predominant in 18th-century moral sense philosophy, the sentimental novel, and the culture of prosocial and religious sentiments (cf. [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref089" ref-type="bibr">89</xref>]). In this new meaning, episodes of being emotionally moved were occasionally subsumed under the category of “melting” [<italic>schmelzend</italic>] emotions, forming a special subgroup of “tender emotions” [<italic>zärtliche Rührungen</italic>] (cf. Kant’s use of these terms in his critical account of the culture of sentimentality, [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref090" ref-type="bibr">90</xref>], pp. 272–273; cf. also the more general hypothesis that aesthetically evaluative emotions tend to be “subtle” rather than “coarse” emotions, [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref091" ref-type="bibr">91</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref094" ref-type="bibr">94</xref>]). The semantics of soft vs. hard, liquid vs. firm, emotional vs. rational, warm vs. cold, fine vs. coarse, and empathic vs. detached/indifferent were explicit parts of this cultural semantics, and together they were often projected onto the female/male distinction. In this regard, recent evidence for a primarily female preference for melodramas and other sadly moving artworks ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref054" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref095" ref-type="bibr">95</xref>]; but see [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref096" ref-type="bibr">96</xref>]) appears to conform to the historical discourse about tenderly moving sentiments. Whether or not we endorse this conformity to a gender-biased cultural semantics of emotionality, Factor 3 of our semantic differential data clearly points in this direction. We suggest calling this factor “Emotional Responsiveness.” In the present context, this term designates the emotional <italic>state</italic> feature of experiencing oneself as highly emotionally affected and hence responsive in a given emotional episode of being moved.</p><fig id="pone.0128451.g005" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0128451.g005</object-id><label>Fig 5</label><caption><title>The five dimensions of the exploratory factor analysis of Study 3.</title><p>The 23 emotion terms used in Study 3 are depicted along the five dimensions revealed by the exploratory factor analysis.</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="pone.0128451.g005"></graphic></fig><p>The affinity of the emotional state factor of being moved to the <italic>trait</italic> feature “Emotional Responsiveness” or “Emotional Responsitivity” [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref097" ref-type="bibr">97</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref099" ref-type="bibr">99</xref>] is worth further investigation. Panksepp [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref025" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>] has already offered indications that this trait may be important to how emotionally moving music is perceived. Other personality features that have been found to positively correlate with a liking for sadly moving music and films and, even more specifically, with the chills that are often elicited by sadly moving artworks—namely, Openness to Experiences [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref100" ref-type="bibr">100</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref103" ref-type="bibr">103</xref>], (social) Agreeableness [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref100" ref-type="bibr">100</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref104" ref-type="bibr">104</xref>], Need-for-Affect [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref105" ref-type="bibr">105</xref>], and Empathy [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref054" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>]—appear to be readily compatible with the socio-emotional responsiveness distinctive of feelings of being moved.</p><p>The higher ratings for <italic>warm</italic> (compared to <italic>cold</italic>) lend further support to this perspective on being moved. A major psychological research tradition interprets the prevalence of warm over cold as indicating the presence of prosocial feelings, dispositions, and behavior, and hence of <italic>social warmth</italic> (cf. [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref025" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref106" ref-type="bibr">106</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref108" ref-type="bibr">108</xref>]). Notably, several individual ratings on the semantic differential scales can still be interpreted as supporting the older more heroic semantics of “moving” an audience and its role for a rhetoric and aesthetics of the (male) sublime; this applies specifically to the prevalence of <italic>elevating</italic> over <italic>depressin</italic>g, <italic>large/big/grand</italic> over <italic>small</italic>, <italic>strong</italic> over <italic>weak</italic>, and <italic>powerful</italic> over <italic>submissive</italic>. Accordingly, war films can still be perceived as both very moving and very heroic and masculine. However, the semantic differential ratings potentially supporting this semantics did not cluster into a factor of their own. Altogether, the data suggest that the participants of our study predominantly had eliciting events of the “softer” type in mind as they rated the being moved terms on the semantic differential scales.</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec036"><title>General Discussion</title><p>The studies reported here identify key distinctive features of the state of being moved. They also provide a basic mapping of the affinities and differences between <italic>being moved</italic> [bewegt] and <italic>being touched</italic> [berührt sein], <italic>being stirred</italic> [gerührt sein], <italic>being deeply moved</italic> [ergriffen sein], <italic>being excited</italic> [aufgeregt sein], <italic>being gripped</italic> [gepackt sein], <italic>being elevated</italic> [erhoben sein], and <italic>being shattered</italic> [erschüttert sein].</p><p>Significant relationship and critical life events account for the great majority of the events/scenarios that elicit feelings of being moved. They are, by definition, of eminent emotional relevance/salience. The most distinctive findings regarding cognitive appraisals were very low ratings for <italic>causation of the event by oneself</italic> and <italic>power to change its outcome</italic> as well as very high ratings for appraisals of <italic>compatibility with social norms</italic> and <italic>self-ideals</italic>. These cognitive features fit well with the great significance of social relationships found in the eliciting scenarios and with the predominant focus on an observer or witness perspective, as pointed out by Tan and Frijda ([<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref013" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>]; see also [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref008" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>]). We suggest that the special relevance and meaningfulness often attributed to feelings of being moved [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref014" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref109" ref-type="bibr">109</xref>] is primarily due to the combination of its special antecedent focus (significant relationship and critical life events) and the significance of the cognitive appraisals for compatibility with social norms and self-ideals. Notably, feelings of being moved apparently activate the value of social bonds and prosocial behavior only in a subdued and widely implicit fashion. In a free association study on being moved that was previously published by our group [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref007" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>] only two of the 20 most frequently mentioned words directly designate concepts with a clear bearing on attachment and bonding; yet even these words—“love” and “friendship”—have so wide an associative range that it is far from clear to what extent they actually activate prosocial norms and self-ideals. In accordance with these findings, classical treatises on being moved by art barely ever explicitly speak of such norms. In fact, artworks that explicitly propagate such prosocial norms and self-ideals are often, if not mostly, bad art. We therefore suggest that it may be important for the poetics of being moved that the prosocial implications of this feeling largely escape a conscious representation and are only brought to the fore by scientific analysis.</p><p>In line with Tokaji’s [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref015" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>] study, sadness and joy turned out to be the two preeminent prototypical emotions involved in episodes of being moved. Importantly, the findings on eliciting scenarios and distinctive appraisal patterns of being moved provide constraints regarding which instances of joy and sadness can potentially give rise to the special emergent feeling of being moved. A more detailed look into the affective nature of episodes of being moved revealed that sadly moving episodes also include sizable levels of positive emotional ingredients [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref021" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>] and positive affect and that, inversely, joyfully moving episodes coactivate significant levels of negative emotional ingredients and negative affect. This characteristic also narrows down the instances of joy and sadness that may be compatible with episodes of being moved. When compared to responses to moving own-life events, sadly moving episodes were reported significantly more often in responses to media-represented real events and fictional events; by contrast, the percentage of joyfully moving episodes was significantly higher in response to own-life events. At the same time, episodes of being sadly moved by fictional events showed, regardless of frequency, a significant decrease of negative affect and an increase of positive affect to the point of reaching almost equal levels with negative affect.</p><p>Notably, the literature on nostalgia [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref026" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref028" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>] and poignancy [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref029" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref030" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>] has arrived at conclusions that show substantial overlap with the present findings regarding being moved, in terms of emotional significance, the invocation of prosocial bonds, and a strong association with (recalling) important moments in life. Accordingly, our Study 3 revealed a substantial overlap between being moved and nostalgia regarding subjective feeling qualities as measured by the attribution of phenomenological qualia (note that the German language has no corresponding special term for “poignancy,” which is why we did not include this term in Study 3). However, this overlap was far from amounting to convergence, since we also found significant differences. While a more detailed discussion of the affinities and differences between poignancy, nostalgia, and being moved lies beyond the scope of the present article, we suggest that <italic>being moved</italic> is the broader term and that the terms <italic>nostalgia</italic> and <italic>poignancy</italic>, while designating special subsets of potentially moving feelings, are far from exhausting the substantial range in variation characteristic of being moved.</p><p>Studies by Konečni have associated being moved also with awe [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref010" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref011" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref049" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>]. However, the majority of the few other articles on awe [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref110" ref-type="bibr">110</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref118" ref-type="bibr">118</xref>] does not claim any close relation with being moved. An underlying reason appears to be that „being moved”belongs to the attachment/bonding/empathy emotions whereas awe—like adoration or veneration [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref119" ref-type="bibr">119</xref>]—implies a substantial distance in power and authority between those who feel it and the prototypical elicitors [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref110" ref-type="bibr">110</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref112" ref-type="bibr">112</xref>]. Moreover, even where very powerful artworks elicit—in rather rare cases—feelings of veneration and awe, there is no clear empirical evidence yet that this response is typically cooccurrent with feelings of being moved. Regarding the German “Ehrfurcht”—which is the typical translation of “awe”—a large linguistic corpus [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref120" ref-type="bibr">120</xref>] provides no cooccurrence-based evidence for any close relationship with “bewegt sein” (being moved). Note, however, that “Ehrfurcht” is only an approximation of English “awe” and that there appears to be no direct equivalent to the word “awe” in both the German and French language [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref121" ref-type="bibr">121</xref>]. Under these linguistic auspices, the fact that our German language-based data do not speak to the issue of awe at all does not amount to disproving a potential affinity of being moved and (English) awe. In any event, more research is needed to arrive at a clear understanding of the potential relations of awe and being moved in responses to artworks and beyond.</p><p>The characteristic power of being moved to involve us in starkly negative emotions while maintaining higher levels of positive affect and hence of enjoyability is the reason why the poetics and rhetoric of moving an audience have time and again played a role in discussions of the apparent “paradox of tragedy” [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref122" ref-type="bibr">122</xref>]. Recently, several studies on the enjoyment of sad films have taken either a more intuitive recourse [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref014" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0128451.ref054" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>] or an explicit theory-guided recourse [<xref rid="pone.0128451.ref055" ref-type="bibr">55</xref>] to the category of being moved. We believe that further research on the enjoyment of negative emotions—and specifically on its role in the arts—might strongly benefit from establishing <italic>being moved</italic> as a well-defined emotion construct.</p><p>Summing up, we suggest that all the characteristics identified through our studies—eliciting events/scenarios, emotional ingredients, affective nature, subjective feeling qualities—, along with the preliminary evidence for physiological, expressive, and motivational components that we found scattered throughout the literature, give episodes of being moved a distinct profile of their own. These characteristics act as multiple layers of constraints that prevent episodes of being moved from being conflated with their key emotional ingredients (sadness and joy), let alone with being in any emotional state whatsoever. Accordingly, considering the five extracted factors of their phenomenological feeling properties, the distribution patterns for being moved, sadness, and joy were significantly different, even though the means for being moved almost exactly converged with the sum of the mean values for sadness and joy (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.s004" ref-type="supplementary-material">S1 Fig</xref>). Putting together all the pieces of evidence that we either more fully elaborated or at least referred to in the discussion sections, we conclude this study with the first comprehensive sketch of a psychological construct of being moved (see <xref rid="pone.0128451.g006" ref-type="fig">Fig 6</xref>). Notably, the data of the three studies presented here have a direct bearing only on the boxes “eliciting events/scenarios,” “appraisals,” “affective signature,” and “feeling qualities.” Entries in all other boxes are extrapolations based both on the broader discussion of the data reported here and on available data and suggestions found in the existing literature and referred to in the discussion sections of the present paper.</p><fig id="pone.0128451.g006" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0128451.g006</object-id><label>Fig 6</label><caption><title>A sketch of a psychological construct of being moved.</title></caption><graphic xlink:href="pone.0128451.g006"></graphic></fig><sec id="sec037"><title>Limitations</title><list list-type="order"><list-item><p>The three studies presented here are limited to self-report data; thus, the usual limitations of this type of data (such as memory bias, self-presentation or social desirability effects, as well as potential sequence effects) apply.
