Study Notes
Chapter 9 & 10: Emotions and Communication
- Emotions are innate, biologically-based and influence our identity, relationships and behaviors
- Emotions are transient (temporary) and biopsychosocial reactions to events
- Basic emotions are adaptive for survival
- Emotions are elicited by external or internal events to signal how we should react
- Emotions are quick, lasting seconds to minutes; moods last longer
- Emotions communicate our state and intentions
Model of Emotion Elicitation
- Emotions are triggered by a coordinated system of components
- Subjective experience (feelings)
- Expressive behaviour (facial expressions, verbal utterances)
- Physiological reactions (increased heart/breathing rate)
- Cognitions (specific thought patterns)
Emotions and Culture
- Emotions are a human universal, but expression of emotions differs across cultures
- Cultures regulate emotions via rules, guidelines, values, and norms
- Cultures regulate innate emotions by constructing unique emotional experiences, concepts, meanings, attitudes, values & beliefs
- Culture affects verbal language and nonverbal behaviours
Cultural Display Rules
- Culturally prescribed rules that govern how universal emotions can be expressed
- Modify expressions via:
- Deamplification (express less than felt)
- Amplification (express more than felt)
- Neutralization (show no emotion)
- Qualification (show one emotion while expressing another)
- Masking (concealing feelings)
- Simulation (showing an emotion you don't feel)
Basic Emotions
- Anger: includes irritated, aggravated, agitated, annoyed and furious
- Fear: includes anxious, nervous, tense, worried, alarmed, shocked, frightened
- Self-conscious emotions: shame, guilt, pride, embarrassment
- Disgust: helps avoid nasty objects, or express disgust towards others
Emotion Antecedents
- Happiness- relationships, meeting friends, achievements
- Anger- relationships, injustice
- Sadness- relationships, death
Culture and Communication
- Language plays a critical role in the transmission, maintenance, and expression of culture.
- Culture influences language, and language symbolizes what culture deems important
- Communication occurs verbally and non-verbally
- Understanding culture-language relationships; nonverbal behavior; and emotion regulation enhances intercultural communication.
Bilingual Advantage
- Bilinguals selectively attend to stimuli better than monolinguals
- Early exposure to multiple languages promotes effective communication.
