情绪表达与精神疾病的病程相关这一发现引起了临床和研究的极大兴趣,人们将情绪表达作为一个重要的危险因素。然而,对表达情感的结构的理论阐明远远落后于这种兴趣。作者就“表达情感”这个“黑匣子”内部的内容进行了对话。他们认为,跨文化研究可以为表达情感因素的理论基础提供实证基础。比较方法表明,表达情感的构建本质上是文化性的。通过表达情感方法索引的情感、品质和行为的组合代表了表达情感因素的跨文化可变特征。 家人对患病亲属的反应。讨论了围绕所表达情感的构建的文化有效性、所表达情感的定性维度以及所表达情感概况的统计上显着的跨文化差异的问题。最后,作者概述了表达情感的多种(文化、心理生物学、社会生态)特征。对表达情感的人类学分析表明,尽管表达情感指数 具有多样化特征的潘多拉魔盒,文化提供了变化的背景,通过它可以最有效地分析这些因素。
The finding that expressed emotion is associated with the course of psychiatric disorder has generated a great deal of clinical and research interest in expressed emotion as an important risk factor. Theoretical elucidation of the construct of expressed emotion has lagged considerably behind this interest, however. The authors contribute to a dialogue on what is inside the" black box''called expressed emotion. They argue that cross-cultural research can provide an empirical basis for the theoretical grounding of expressed emotion factors. A comparative approach reveals that the construct of expressed emotion is essentially cultural in nature. The constellation of emotions, auitudes, and behaviors that are indexed by the expressed emotion method represent cross-culturally variable features of family response to an ill relative. Questions surrounding the cultural validity of the construct of expressed emotion, the qualitative dimensions of expressed emotion, and statistically significant cross-cultural variations in expressed emotion profiles are discussed. Finally, the authors provide an outline of diverse (cultural, psychobiological, social-ecological) features of expressed emotion. Anthropological analysis of expressed emotion reveals that although expressed emotion indexes a Pandora's box of diverse features, culture provides the context of variation through which these factors are most productively analyzed.
