This article reviews studies on the concept ”praise”. Many studies have been conducted on praise in the field of psychology. These studies addressed the function of praise, its effect on motivation and emotion, its use in counseling and in the local community, guides to better praise, and the caution that must be exercised with regard to praise. Most of these studies have focused on the effect of praise and have been conducted from the perspective of the teachers and parents who praise children. However, there are few studies on children’s cognition of praise. Praise is communication; therefore, it needs to be researched from the viewpoint of both adults who praise children and children who are praised. This article highlights the need fro research from the viewpoint of children, particularly young, who are praised.
