Adaptive Guilt

Adaptive Guilt is a psychological construct denoting a context-sensitive regulatory mechanism of guilt that functions to promote prosocial behavior and moral self-correction through the internalization of norm violations, distinguishing itself from maladaptive forms by its association with constructive emotional responses and behavioral reparation rather than chronic self-blame or distress.
