(2015): Learning (by) Feeling. A Cross-Cultural Comparison of the Socialization and Development of Emotions. In: Ethos 43 (2), S. 187-220. DOI: 10.1111/etho.12080
Abstract: Examined cross-cultural differences in socialization and development of feelings. Drawing on approaches from developmental psychology and cultural anthropology, it was analyzed how cultural models of emotion and their corresponding emotionally arousing child-rearing practices lead to culture-specific pathways of emotion development among the Bara (Madagascar) and the Tao (Taiwan). After introducing cultural models of ontogenesis and child rearing, phases of development, interaction patterns, and sanctioning practices are reflected and culture-specific pathways of emotional development are discussed. The focus is set especially on socializing emotions, which are defined in terms of their function to orient individuals toward cultural norms and values and to inculcate social conformity. Based on empirical data gathered in two long-term ethnographic field studies, evidence is provided that the Bara emphasize fear and the Tao anxiety as focal socializing emotions. zitiert von 15

(2013): Parental Ethnotheories, Social Practice and the Culture-Specific Development of Social Smiling in Infants. In: Mind, Culture, and Activity 20 (1), S. 79-95. DOI: 10.1080/10749039.2012.742112
Abstract: Argues that current theories on socioemotional development during infancy need to be reconceptualized in order to account for cross-cultural variation in caregiver-infant interaction. In line with the cultural-historical internalization theory of emotional development (Holodynski & Friedlmeier, 2006) and the ecocultural model of development (Keller & Kartner, 2013), the authors argue that socioemotional development can be understood only in the context of social practice and underlying ethnotheories that give significance to infants' emotional expressions. Thus, culture-specific interpretations of and expectations concerning infants' expressive cues lead to culture-specific interactional routines. These, in turn, lead to culture-specific usage of these expressions by the developing child. To develop the argument, the authors focus on a specific aspect of early socioemotional development, namely, the emergence of social smiling during infancy. Interactional dynamics in autonomous cultural milieus are based on specific ethnotheories, most prominently that positive emotional exchange during face-to-face interaction is one of the most desirable ways of interacting with infants. However, the dominant ethnotheories concerning emotional development and their associated behavioral routines vary systematically across cultural milieus and are markedly different in prototypically relational cultural milieus, in which they center on infants' contentment. This has implications for infants' emotional expressivity and, possibly, experience. zitiert von 25

(2012): Affect and culture
Abstract: Discusses different approaches to explaining cultural similarities and differences. First, the ongoing debate between evolutionary and culture-relativistic approaches is addressed. Then, it is argued that an integrative developmental perspective on the ontogenetic emergence of emotions is of importance in identifying the ontogenetic roots of their cultural similarities and differences. It is further maintained that a developmental perspective can also serve as a validation of indigenous approaches, as well as for cross-cultural comparisons of adult emotions. This approach focuses on emotional expressions as a culturally constructed sign system that mediates between the cultural and psychological spheres.The acquisition of expression signs in interpersonal interaction is suggested to lead to a transformation of biologically determined precursor emotions of neonates into the culturally functional and differentiated emotions of adults. Such an approach is concluded to facilitate the identification of constitutive components of culturally differentiated emotions and their constitutive sociocultural factors that channel common and culture-specific pathways of emotional development. zitiert von 8

(2011) : Emotion, self-regulation, and social behavior in cultural contexts In: Chen, Xinyin; Rubin, Kenneth H. (Hg.): Socioemotional development in cultural context: New York, NY: Guilford (Social, emotional, and personality development in context), S. 131-163
Abstract: Presented a cultural model of emotion, self-regulation, and social development. The authors argue that culture plays a pivotal role in the socialization of emotion, having an effect on children's ability to self-regulate and ultimately their social behavior. Topics of discussion include the functional relations between emotional and social development, the aspects of social competence, parenting, universal and individual developmental conditions, the role of culture-specific socialization conditions, the role of cognitive and emotional factors in the development of self-regulation, universal and culture-specific conditions of emotion regulation, and culture-specific aspects of socialization processes. It is concluded a culturally informed view on the development of emotion and social behavior is necessary for the proper evaluation of any actual outcome. The need for more cross-cultural, within-culture, and culturally informed studies on the development of emotion regulation, self-regulation, and social competence is recommended. zitiert von 42

(2007): Familiale Kontexte und sozial-emotionale Entwicklung. In: KINDHEIT UND ENTWICKLUNG 16 (4), S. 199-208. DOI: 10.1026/0942-5403.16.4.199
Abstract: The various behavioral domains of childhood social development and the most prominent domains in the socialization process are summarized, i.e., significant characteristics of immediate family members, social and societal environment, attachment behavior, parenting behavior, and couple relationship qualities. For each domain, a short state-of-the-art overview is provided, and significant relationships with the social development of children are described. It is concluded that a description of possible developmental processes calls for multivariate longitudinal studies modeling the interplay of the various domains over time, as well as the study of possible relationships or overlap between concepts in various domains, e.g., sensitivity in the domain of attachment and parenting behavior.
