The purpose of this study is to investigate how veterans suffering from PTSD symptoms and possible moral injury respond to elevation stimuli in a controlled laboratory setting. Specifically, this study aims to identify the unique effects of experiencing moral elevation in this population across various domains including emotional (e.g., shame, guilt), cognitive (e.g., trauma-related beliefs), biological (e.g., cortisol), and physiological (e.g., HRV) responses.
