Empathy, as a other-directed multidimensional emotional construct (including compassion, sympathy, ...) describes the ability to understand the feelings of other people suffering and to share their feelings.

However, I can't find research on the opposite: is there an emotional other-directed construct that describes the understanding and/or feelings of an individual when he or she sees others, who are better off (who experience prosperity instead of suffering)?

I appreciate your help!
