两项研究为最近提出的沟通情感的方言理论提供了直接支持,该理论认为,表达性展示显示出与语言方言相似的文化差异,从而降低了外群体成员的准确识别。在研究1中,来自魁北克和加蓬的60名参与者摆出面部表情。方言,以激活不同肌肉的形式表现为相同的表情,最明显的是平静,羞愧和蔑视,也是愤怒,悲伤,惊讶和快乐,但不是恐惧,厌恶。或者尴尬在研究2中,魁北克和加蓬的参与者判断这些刺激和刺激标准化,以消除文化方言。正如预测的那样,根据研究1,非标准化表达的组内优势出现了,并且对于具有更大区域方言的表达最为强烈。
Two studies provided direct support for a recently proposed dialect theory of communicating emotion, positing that expressive displays show cultural variations similar to linguistic dialects, thereby decreasing accurate recognition by out-group members. In Study 1, 60 participants from Quebec and Gabon posed facial expressions. Dialects, in the form of activating different muscles for the same expressions, emerged most clearly for serenity, shame, and contempt and also for anger, sadness, surprise, and happiness, but not for fear, disgust. or embarrassment. In Study 2, Quebecois and Gabonese participants judged these stimuli and stimuli standardized to erase cultural dialects. As predicted, an in-group advantage emerged for nonstandardized expressions only and most strongly for expressions with greater regional dialects, according to Study 1.
