Positive Self-Conscious Emotion and Development Across Cultures

Project Period: July, 05-Present
Principal Investigator: Jin Li, Co-PI: Kurt Fischer, Ph.D., Harvard University

This project focuses on European American and Chinese concepts of six positive self-conscious emotions: Pride, honor, respect, face, gratitude, and humility. Currently, we are in the process of studying the basic conceptual maps of each of these emotions among Chinese adults. For respect, I am collaborating with Drs. Yeh Hsueh and Katherine Kitzmann at University of Memphis.
