Satisfaction

Fulfillment of one's wishes, expectations, or needs.

Satisfaction is the positive feeling of contentment and fulfillment that arises when our wishes, expectations, or needs are met. It's a medium-intensity joy with low arousal, often described as a warm, comforting sense of well-being. Satisfaction can be experienced in various contexts, from personal achievements to social connections. According to Plutchik’s theory, satisfaction is closely related to joy and its opposite is sadness. It plays a crucial role in bonding and reproduction, fostering a sense of harmony and security.
