Ein Kapitel aus dem Buch Intercultural Communication

Abstract

In psychology, researchers have attempted to connect emotion to social life because emotion is critical in maintaining and improving social relationships. There are various possible perspectives with which to approach the topic of emotion in research. In this chapter, we discuss emotion and its expressions based on the premise that certain types of emotions are akin to innate psychological and behavioral mechanisms of human beings. We explain what emotions are and how they are displayed as one way to communicate with others socially, and describe how research has been conducted on the topic. We focus on emotional expressions on the face because the face is one of the most prevalent channel of displaying emotions in our daily lives. The role of culture in displaying emotions is also thoroughly discussed based on research evidence because it is one of the best ways to understand emotional expressions of others from different cultural backgrounds.
