Abstract

Cultural differences in emotion expression, experience, and regulation can cause misunderstandings with lasting effects on interpersonal, intergroup, and international relations. A full account of the factors responsible for the emergence of different cultures of emotion is therefore urgent. Here we propose that the ancestral diversity of regions of the world, determined by colonization and sometimes forced migration of humans over centuries, explains significant variation in cultures of emotion. We review findings that relate the ancestral diversity of the world's countries to present-day differences in display rules for emotional expression, the clarity of expressions, and the use of specific facial expressions such as the smile. Results replicate at the level of the states of the United States, which also vary in ancestral diversity. Further, we suggest that historically diverse contexts provide opportunities for individuals to exercise physiological processes that support emotion regulation, resulting in average regional differences in cardiac vagal tone. We conclude that conditions created by the long-term commingling of the world's people have predictable effects on the evolution of emotion cultures and provide a roadmap for future research to analyze causation and isolate mechanisms linking ancestral diversity to emotion.

祖先多样性:情感文化的社会生态学解释。
情感表达、体验和调节方面的文化差异会导致误解,并对人际关系、群体间关系和国际关系产生持久影响。因此,对导致不同情感文化出现的因素进行全面的解释是当务之急。在这里,我们提出,世界各地区祖先的多样性,由几个世纪以来人类的殖民和有时被迫迁移决定,解释了情感文化的显著差异。我们回顾了世界各国祖先的多样性与当今在情感表达、表达清晰度和特定面部表情(如微笑)的使用方面的差异。结果在美国各州的水平上得到了重复,这些州的祖先多样性也各不相同。此外,我们认为,历史上不同的背景为个体提供了锻炼支持情绪调节的生理过程的机会,从而导致心脏迷走神经张力的平均区域差异。我们的结论是,世界人口长期混合所创造的条件对情感文化的演变具有可预测的影响,并为未来的研究提供了路线图,以分析因果关系,并将祖先多样性与情感联系起来。
