  • Universals and Cultural Variations in Emotional Expression by Daniel Thomas Cordaro a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Satisfac
    Universals and Cultural Variations in Emotional Expression By Daniel Thomas Cordaro A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Dacher Keltner, Chair Professor Iris Mauss Professor Cameron Anderson Spring 2014 1 Abstract Universals and Cultural Variations in Emotional Expression by Daniel Thomas Cordaro Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology University of California, Berkeley Professor Dacher Keltner, Chair One of the most fascinating characteristics of emotions is that they have universal expressive patterns. These expressions, which are encoded through multiple bodily channels, allow us to identify distinct emotions in ourselves and others. After groundbreaking theorizing by Charles Darwin and early empirical work by Ekman and Izard, further research in emotion science revealed evidence in single cultures for more emotional expressions above and beyond the well- studied set comprising of anger, contempt, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, and surprise. Some of these new emotions were displayed using nonfacial modalities, such as the voice, touch, and posture. Following the logic set forth by these methods and findings, we tested two hypotheses: 1) there are more than seven universal expressions of emotion; 2) expressive universality is not limited to facial expression. Findings from three cross-cultural experimental studies yielded support to the above hypotheses. Our first study collected 5500 expressions of twenty-one emotions from five different cultures. Spontaneous behavioral analysis revealed core facial and bodily patterns for each of the 21 states across all five cultures. Additionally, we uncovered over 100 cultural variations to the universal patterns and hundreds of individual variations.

  • Cultural Differences in the Perception of Facial Emotion

Ellsworth University of Alberta University of Michigan Batja Mesquita Janxin Leu Wake Forest University University of Washington Shigehito Tanida Ellen Van de Veerdonk Hokkaido University University of Amsterdam Two studies tested the hypothesis that in judging people’s emotions from their facial expressions, Japanese, more than Westerners, incorporate information from the social context. In Study 1, participants viewed cartoons depicting a happy, sad, angry, or neutral person surrounded by other people expressing the same emotion as the central person or a different one. The surrounding people’s emotions influenced Japanese but not Westerners’ perceptions of the central person. These differences reflect differences in attention, as indicated by eye-tracking data (Study 2): Japanese looked at the surrounding people more than did Westerners. Previous findings on East–West differences in contextual sensitivity generalize to social contexts, suggesting that Westerners see emotions as individual feelings, whereas Japanese see them as inseparable from the feelings of the group.

    Examining cultural dimensions and depression in Iran Julia Alexandra Gillard D.Clin.Psy. Thesis (Volume 1) 2019 University College London UCL Doctorate in Clinical Psychology Thesis declaration form I confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature: Name: Julia Gillard Date: 14.6.2019 2 Overview This thesis explores the relationship between depression and cultural orientation in Iran. This overview provides a summary of all three parts of the first volume of this thesis: a literature review, an empirical paper and a critical appraisal. The literature review examined the relationship between culture and emotion in the context of depression. This was important given the many overlapping psychological and emotional processes being implicated in the current models of depression. Results from the review revealed cultural differences in the conceptualisation of depression, as well as cultural variability in the perception, experience and regulation of emotion. This suggested that perceptions and experiences of emotion are shaped through the interplay of biologically innate processes, as well as the reinforcement of appraisals and belief systems consistent with cultural contexts. However, challenges in cross-cultural psychology remain in the replication and validation of existing findings, which may account for the cultural variability. The empirical paper thus explored cultural orientation and depression in Iran. Findings validated a range of cultural measures in line with calls in the literature to provide replicability. In addition, a data-driven approach was used to derive meaningful latent structures across cultural measures that, importantly, provided a unique examination of the relationship between culture and depression.

  • Subtle Semblances of Sorrow: Exploring Music, Emotional Theory, and Methodology
    Subtle Semblances of Sorrow: Exploring Music, Emotional Theory, and Methodology Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lindsay Alison Warrenburg, M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee: Daniel Shanahan, Advisor David Huron Anna Gawboy Dónal O’Mathúna Copyright by Lindsay Alison Warrenburg 2019 2 Abstract Music, perhaps more than any other art form, is able to influence moods and affect behavior. There are limitless accounts of music eliciting feelings of nostalgia, transcendence, and other seemingly ineffable emotions. In the scientific study of music and emotion, however, only five music-induced emotions have been studied in depth: happiness, sadness, fear, anger, and tenderness (Juslin, 2013). Although these emotions are certainly important and can be expressed and elicited through music listening, a pertinent question becomes the following: do these five words accurately capture all affective states related to music? Throughout my dissertation, I argue that in order to better understand emotional responses to musical stimuli, we need to change the way we use emotional terminology and examine emotional behaviors. In the first part of the dissertation (Chapters 1-4), I review how emotional music has been theoretically characterized and which excerpts have been utilized in research. I will show that the field of music and emotion is fraught with conceptual difficulties and that passages of music expressing a single emotion (e.g., sadness) span an unmanageably large area of emotional space. The second part of the dissertation (Chapters 5-8) provides an in-depth analysis of music that has been classified by other researchers as sad.

  • (2015). Consequences of Cultural Fluency, Social Cognition, 33
    Social Cognition, Vol. 33, No. 4, 2015, pp. 308–344 MOUREY ET AL. CULTURAL FLUENCY CONSEQUENCES OF CULTURAL FLUENCY James A. Mourey DePaul University Ben C. P. Lam Iowa State University Daphna Oyserman The University of Southern California Cultural expertise implies knowing how things are done in everyday life (“pink on Valentine’s Day,” “obituaries celebrate and are mournful”) such that one’s conscious or nonconscious culture-based expectations typically match situations as they unfold. We synthesize cultural, neural prediction, and social cognition models to predict that a hallmark of this culture-based expectation-to-situation match is the experience of cultural fuency (and its opposite, cultural disfuency). Cultural disfuency arises as a result of a mis- match between culture-based conscious or nonconscious expectation and situation, cuing a switch in processing style from associative to rule-based systematic processing. Eight experiments demonstrate that these effects are cultural, found only among people who know the culture, and only if the cultural situation is cued. People are infuenced by plate design on holidays they know, not ones they do not know. Effects are found during, but not after, cultural events and generalize beyond holidays to everyday events. Keywords: culture; acculturation; situated cognition; fuency, metacognitive experience We gratefully acknowledge financial support from the Humboldt Foundation (Oyserman) and from the University of Michigan Rackham Graduate School (Mourey) and the helpful comments we received from Norbert Schwarz, Michigan’s Culture and Self Lab group, and from participants in research seminars and colloquia at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Robert Wyer), the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Rashmi Adaval), Hong Kong Polytechnic University of Hong Kong (Sylvia Chen and Michael Bond), the University of Leuven, Psychology (Batja Mesquita) and Marketing (Luk Warlop), Stanford University (Hazel Markus), and the University of California at Los Angeles (Phillip Goff).

Visual scenes, voices, bodies, other faces, cultural orientation, and even words shape how emotion is perceived in a face, calling into question the still-common assumption that the emotional state of a person is written on and can be read from the face like words on a page. Incorporating context during emotion perception appears to be routine, efficient, and, to some degree, automatic.
