大量的研究已经证明了几种情绪表达的普遍性。然而,最近的研究结果表明,文化差异的程度承认和评级的强度。在测试文化差异时,刺激集必须满足某些要求。松本和埃克曼的日本和高加索人面部表情的情感(JACFEE)是唯一一套符合这些要求。本研究的目的是获得JACFEE的判断可靠性数据,并测试可能的跨国差异的判断以及。来自匈牙利、日本、波兰、苏门答腊、美国和越南的受试者观看了完整的JACFEE照片集,并判断照片中描绘了哪些情绪,并对这些表情的强度进行了评级。结果显示,各国在识别照片中描绘的情绪方面具有高度一致性,证明了JACFEE的可靠性。尽管一致性很高,但在愤怒、蔑视、厌恶、恐惧、悲伤和惊讶的照片的确切一致性水平上发现了跨国差异。在照片的强度水平上也发现了跨国差异。没有系统的变化,由于任何先前的情绪或介绍顺序的JACFEE被发现。此外,我们发现,分组的国家到西方/非西方的二分法是不合理的,根据数据。相反,跨国差异进行了讨论,可能的社会心理变量影响情绪判断。
Substantial research has documented the universality of several emotional expressions. However, recent findings have demonstrated cultural differences in level of recognition and ratings of intensity. When testing cultural differences, stimulus sets must meet certain requirements. Matsumoto and Ekman's Japanese and Caucasian Facial Expressions of Emotion (JACFEE) is the only set that meets these requirements. The purpose of this study was to obtain judgment reliability data on the JACFEE, and to test for possible cross-national differences in judgments as well. Subjects from Hungary, Japan, Poland, Sumatra, United States, and Vietnam viewed the complete JACFEE photo set and judged which emotions were portrayed in the photos and rated the intensity of those expressions. Results revealed high agreement across countries in identifying the emotions portrayed in the photos, demonstrating the reliability of the JACFEE. Despite high agreement, cross-national differences were found in the exact level of agreement for photos of anger, contempt, disgust, fear, sadness, and surprise. Cross-national differences were also found in the level of intensity attributed to the photos. No systematic variation due to either preceding emotion or presentation order of the JACFEE was found. Also, we found that grouping the countries into a Western/Non-Western dichotomy was not justified according to the data. Instead, the cross-national differences are discussed in terms of possible sociopsychological variables that influence emotion judgments.
