This project aims to explore and challenge assumptions about the ‘right way’ to regulate emotions, articulating a new theoretical perspective on appropriate expression and suppression of positive emotion. People generally assume there are social benefits to expressing positive emotion and social costs to suppressing positive emotion. This project introduces a new perspective on emotion regulation that recognises that different contexts may call for different strategies. The project plans to test whether the positive emotions we think bring us closer can actually worsen social relations, and whether suppressing positive emotion, long believed to have negative social effects, can bring people closer in unexpected ways.

该项目旨在探索和挑战关于调节情绪的“正确方式”的假设，阐明正确表达和抑制积极情绪的新理论视角。人们普遍认为表达积极情绪会带来社会效益，而抑制积极情绪则会带来社会成本。该项目引入了情绪调节的新视角，认识到不同的环境可能需要不同的策略。该项目计划测试我们认为让我们更亲近的积极情绪是否实际上会恶化社会关系，以及抑制长期被认为会产生负面社会影响的积极情绪是否会以意想不到的方式让人们更加亲近。
