Abstract
Gratitude is a very special emotion. Our society and organizations should pay attention to gratitude, and furthermore, should understand how to manage gratitude. Up to now, gratitude research lacks a systematic arrangement. Thus, this study first reviews the near gratitude research and preliminarily finds that gratitude research could be divided into three categories: clarify the concept of gratitude; the consequences of gratitude; the causes of producing gratitude.
