==Response== The main response of contempt lies within "publicized expression of low regard for the objects held in contempt" (Miller, C.H., 2005). By this reasoning, a person holding contempt would not have the urge to openly confront the person with whom they are at odds, nor would they themselves try to remove the object of contempt; rather, one who holds contempt would have the tendency to hold the view that others should remove the object of contempt, or hold the view that the object of contempt should remove itself. So while one would make their feelings known to others, the person with contempt would not necessarily want to directly deal with the situation at hand. One who is experiencing contempt would exhibit negative affective behaviors that may be labeled as "cold" β this simply meaning that one who is experiencing the emotion of contempt would tend to [[social alienation|alienate]] those responsible.<ref>Miller, C.
