[{"role": "system", "content": "Regret is a negative conscious and emotional reaction to one's personal decision-making, a choice resulting in action or inaction. Regret is related to perceived opportunity. Its intensity varies over time after the decision, in regard to action versus action, and in regard to self-control at a particular age. The self-recrimination which comes with regret is thought to spur corrective action and adaptation. In Western societies adults have the highest regrets regarding choices of their education. Regret has been defined by psychologists in the late 1990\u00b4s as a \"negative emotion predicated on an upward, self-focused, counterfactual inference\". Regret lingers where opportunity existed, with self-blame being a core element to ultimately spur corrective action in decision-making. Another definition is \"an aversive emotional state elicited by a discrepancy in the outcome values of chosen vs. unchosen actions\". Regret is distinct from disappointment; Both are negative emotional experiences relating to a loss outcome, and both have similar neuronal correlates. However, they differ in regard to feedback about the outcome, comparing the difference between outcomes for the chosen vs. unchosen action; In regret, full feedback occurs and with disappointment partial feedback.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Do you have anything that you regret in your lif3?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Perceived Opportunity is why most people feel regret. carpe diem my friend"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Yes, but passing up an opportunity can easily lead to regret as it's often the case that we don't know how good an opportunity is until we pass it up"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "i completely agree, the 'self-recimination' which comes from the feeling of regret.
