This comprehensive Research Handbook demonstrates how culture shapes emotional experience and expression across human societies. Moving beyond debates centred on universality and cultural specificity, it evaluates cross-cultural similarities and meaningful differences throughout emotion processes.

A geographically diverse array of leading experts explore theoretical perspectives and methodological advances as frameworks for understanding emotion communication and the social functions of emotions. They analyse discrete emotions such as disgust, anger, love and happiness through interdisciplinary approaches spanning psychology, sociology and computational lenses. Featuring understudied topics and global viewpoints often absent from mainstream research, this Research Handbook serves as a key resource for future avenues of psychological study.

The Research Handbook on Culture and Emotion is an essential reference point for scholars and students of cultural psychology, emotion psychology and communication. Affective scientists and social psychologists will also benefit from its evidence-based approach and theoretical foundations.
