Comparison of Associative Meaning of the Concepts of Anger, Envy, Fear, Romantic Jealousy, and Sadness Between English and Korean
With emotion terms as a between-participants variable, 304 American and Korean undergraduates free associated in writing for 1 minute to either anger, envy, fear, jealousy, or sadness. In favor of the concept of language universals but in opposition to the tenet of postmodernism that emotion concepts are language and culture specific, a third of the associations were identical in the two languages, with differences centered on what aspect of the …
Universal development of emotion categories in natural language
P. Shaver, J. Schwartz, D. Kirson, and C. O'Connor (1987) found that English emotion words fall into 25 categories of synonyms. To find emotion nomenclature universals, the authors used P. Shaver et al.'s taxonomy in a sample of the world's languages and found that emotion categories were added in most languages in a relatively similar generalized sequence. Labeled first were the categories of anger and guilt; followed in Stage 2 by adoration, al…
The Colors of Anger, Envy, Fear, and Jealousy: A Cross-Cultural Study
Word associations or verbal synesthesia between concepts of color and emotions were studied in Gersnany, Mexico, Poland, Russia, and the United States. With emotion words as the between-subjects variable, 661 undergraduates indicated on 6-point scales to what extent anger, envy, fear, and jealousy reminded them of 12 terms of color. In all nations, the colors of anger were black and red, fear was black, and jealousy was red. Cross-cultural differ…
Sex Differences in Jealousy: Evolution or Social Construction
Buss, Larsen, Westen, and Semmelroth claimed that sex differences in the dislike of sexual or emotional infidelity supported the socio-biological hypothesis of men (i.e., most men) having evolved sexual jealousy, whereas women (i.e., most women) evolved emotional jealousy. In two studies with 745 undergraduates, our finding was that, similar to the Buss et al. finding, over 50% of the men and women reported greater upset over imagined emotional i…
Anger, Envy, Fear, and Jealousy as Felt in the Body: A Five-Nation Study
An ongoing debate is centered on the question of whether emotions have their own pattern of autonomic nervous system activation. To determine whether individuals do perceive subjective physiological changes for different emotions, 514 university students in Germany, Mexico, Poland, Russia, and the United States indicated on a 6-point scale to what extent they felt anger, envy, fear, and jealousy in particular parts of the body and body processes.…
Cross-Cultural Comparisons of Nouns Associated With Jealousy and the Related Emotions of Envy, Anger, and Fear
To determine cross-cultural variations in associative meaning, 389 males and females in Germany, Russia, and the United States rated nouns for their degree of association with the concepts of jealousy, envy, anger, and fear. The findings touched on several issues. Re garding the conceptual distinction between jealousy and envy, the associations overlapped strongly in the United States, somewhat in Germany, and not at all in Russia. In agreement w…
The Cultural Contribution To Jealousy: Cross-Cultural Aggression in Sexual Jealousy Situations
This study explores the cultural contribution to emotional responses. Specifically, it examines the contribution of social structures to the severi ty of aggression in sexual jealousy situations. It is hypothesized that the aggression in jealousy situations is correlated with the cultural importance attached to being married, the limitations placed on nonmarital and extra marital sexual gratification, the emphasis on private ownership of proper t…
Romantic Jealousy and Romantic Envy in Germany, Poland, and the United States
Cross‐cultural differences in the elicitation of sexual jealousy
This paper focuses on cross‐cultural differences in sexual jealousy. It is assumed that cultures differ (a) in the incidence of sexual jealousy, (b) in the range of acceptable strategies for coping with a jealousy situation, and (c) in the behavior evoking sexual jealousy. We addressed the last aspect. Subjects were 2,079 students from seven industrialized nations: Hungary, Ireland, Mexico, the Netherlands, the Soviet Union, the United States, an…
Romantic Jealousy and Romantic Envy: A Seven-Nation Study
Factor analyses and Procrustes rotations of the responses of 1194 female and 877 male university students in seven countries to a 69-item Likert-type questionnaire revealed cross-cultural commonalities and differences for romantic jealousy and romantic envy. However, when mean ratings of the questionnaire items were categorized as indicating agreement or disagreement with the items, the evidence for cross-cultural invariance of jealousy and envy …
