The chapter analyzes pride scripts by focusing on pride’s constituent parts. Using representative examples as bases for modeling how the functioning of the emotion is envisioned, it examines what causes pride, what kind of behaviors the emotion, once aroused, leads to, and what reactions it is likely to provoke. It shows that pride can be said, in general, to originate in various types of good fortune or personal accomplishment that are overvalued by the person experiencing them compared to how they are viewed externally. The excessive emotion then is seen to lead to a variety of transgressive behaviors, ranging from verbal excess to physical violence. These behaviors form part of the subject’s attempts at impressing this self-valuation on others. The reactions to pride show the greatest variety and are dependent on the relative power of the affected party in the relationship.
