Development of Emotions and Emotion Regulation

The book explores the intersection of emotional development and cultural context through the collaboration of two researchers, Wolfgang Friedlmeier and Manfred Holodynski. It delves into how children from different cultures experience and regulate emotions like empathy, distress, pride, and shame. The authors investigate the processes that transform socially shared emotional experiences into individual mental processes, emphasizing the significance of early social interactions and cultural influences in shaping emotional regulation and development.
