(2018) : Emotionen in Lern- und Leistungskontexten In: Spinath, Birgit; Dickhäuser, Oliver; Schöne, Claudia (Hg.): Psychologie der Motivation und Emotion: Grundlagen und Anwendung in ausgewählten Lern- und Arbeitskontexten: 1. Auflage: Göttingen: Hogrefe, S. 80-107
Abstract: Die Entstehung und Auswirkungen der in Lern- und Leistungskontexten auftretenden Emotionen werden aus der Perspektive der Allgemeinen Emotionspsychologie in den Blick genommen. Dabei soll herausgearbeitet werden, welche Aussagen über diese Emotionen sich bereits aus einer allgemeinpsychologischen Theorie der Emotionen ableiten lassen. Allgemeinpsychologische Theorien beanspruchen, für alle normal funktionierenden Erwachsenen in allen Lebensbereichen gültig zu sein. Dementsprechend lautet die Grundannahme bei der Anwendung einer allgemeinpsychologischen Emotionstheorie auf den Lern- und Leistungskontext, dass die dort auftretenden Emotionen von grundsätzlich derselben Art sind, nach denselben Gesetzmäßigkeiten entstehen und dieselben Auswirkungen haben wie Emotionen in anderen Lebensbereichen. Die im Hauptteil der Ausführungen beschriebene allgemeinpsychologische Analyse der Lern- und Leistungsemotionen wird anschließend mit den Annahmen einer neueren Emotionstheorie verglichen, die speziell für Lern- und Leistungsemotionen entwickelt worden ist, der "Kontroll-Wert-Theorie". Abschließend wird kurz auf die Messung von Lern- und Leistungsemotionen eingegangen.

(2017) : Cultural and genetic influences on emotion: The role of motivational processes in gene-culture interactions. In: Church, A. T.: Culture and characteristic adaptations: Santa Barbara, California, USA: Praeger/ABC-CLIO, S. 35-59
Abstract: Imagine you have just arrived in a country you have never visited before. The language spoken is different from yours, and yet you find that you are able to communicate at least some of your sentiments with the local people. You can express your feelings of excitement, perhaps from being in an exotic environment, as well as your frustrations from getting a little lost. Through your facial expressions, gestures, and physiological responses—sweating palms, a racing heart, and rapid breathing—some of your basic emotions come across to the people you meet. Although the general meaning of certain emotions may be shared, are emotions experienced and expressed in the same way across cultures? How do biological factors, such as genetic and physiological processes, interact with social and cultural factors to influence emotions? In this chapter, we first review research on culture and emotional experience and expression. Next, we review the theoretical background for gene-cult ure inte raction research, and we put forward a novel hypothesis that considers the role of motivational processes in these interaction effects: the motivational setting hypothesis. We then discuss gene culture interaction research with cultural psychological findings in the area of emotion. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved)

(2016): Ein bisschen Wut tut gut - warum Manager moralisch motivierte Wut ernst nehmen sollten. In: Wirtschaftspsychologie aktuell 23 (1), S. 57-60
Abstract: Es wird die Wut im Arbeitsleben als alltagliches Phanomen und normale Begleiterscheinung bei Interaktionsprozessen zwischen Individuen erortert. Dabei geht es vor allem um den sensiblen Umgang von Fuhrungskraften mit Emotionen von Mitarbeitern. Haufig handelt es sich dabei um prosoziale oder moralisch motivierte Wut (MMW), die sich von herkommlicher Wut unterscheidet. Die MMW ist eine Emotion, die ein Fehlverhalten bewertet, um es dann verantwortungsbewusst zu korrigieren. In diesem Sinne ist MMW ein erregter Gemutszustand, der durch die Verletzung moralischer Standards hervorgerufen wird, andere mehr betrifft als das handelnde Individuum selbst und ein Korrekturverhalten nach sich zieht, selbst wenn es fur dieses Individuum ein Risiko darstellt. Dafur werden zwei Praxisbeispiele (Der Fall Edward Snowden und der VW-Abgasskandal) zitiert und am Beispiel des Films "Die zwolf Geschworenen"wird aufgezeigt, wie Handeln durch MMW beeinflusst wird. Fur Fuhrungskrafte ist es wichtig, verschiedene Arten der Wut zu erkennen und zwischen Wut als Personlichkeitsmerkmal (trait anger) und situationsbedingte Emotion (state anger) zu differenzieren. Nur so konnen Warnsignale von MMW erkannt und richtig eingeordnet werden.

(2015): Anger as driving factor of moral courage in comparison with guilt and global mood. A multimethod approach. In: European Journal of Social Psychology 45 (1), S. 39-51
Abstract: Examined the roles of anger and guilt in stimulating moral courage as a response to observed norm violations and assessed the effect of global positive or negative mood on the impact of these specific moral responses. The authors hypothesized that anger and guilt drive moral courage, and that intervention strength is positively related to the strength of emotional reaction. They also hypothesized that the effects of anger are not affected by guilt feelings or by global mood. Participants were part of a real theft scenario in the laboratory. A multimethod emotion assessment compared participants' self-reports of guilt and anger online during the study and again after being debriefed (retrospective). Observer ratings of their responses during the theft scenario completed the assessment. Findings showed that only anger predicted intervention behavior. Measures of guilt and intervention strength correlated positively online, as expected. However, contrary to expectations, retrospective self-reports of guilt were unrelated to intervention strength in both phases. In Phase 2, a significant negative association between positive mood and intervention strength and a positive correlation between negative mood and intervention strength could be identified. In conclusion, findings indicate that individuals who experience and express anger more strongly appear to be able to overcome the psychological barrier of potentially negative social response and act in situations requiring fast and immediate intervention. zitiert von: 14

(2015): Why Seemingly Trivial Events Sometimes Evoke Strong Emotional Reactions. The Role of Social Exchange Rule Violations. In: The Journal of Social Psychology 155 (6), S. 559-575. DOI: 10.1080/00224545.2015.1084985
DOI: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26331429 Abstract: People sometimes display strong emotional reactions to events that appear disproportionate to the tangible magnitude of the event. Although previous work has addressed the role that perceived disrespect and unfairness have on such reactions, this study examined the role of perceived social exchange rule violations more broadly. Participants (N = 179) rated the effects of another person's behavior on important personal outcomes, the degree to which the other person had violated fundamental rules of social exchange, and their reactions to the event. Results showed that perceptions of social exchange rule violations accounted for more variance in participants' reactions than the tangible consequences of the event. The findings support the hypothesis that responses that appear disproportionate to the seriousness of the eliciting event are often fueled by perceived rule violations that may not be obvious to others. zitiert von 5

(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

(2012): Emotion and the construal of social situations. Inferences of cooperation versus competition from expressions of anger, happiness, and disappointment. In: Cognition & emotion 26 (3), S. 442-461. DOI: 10.1080/02699931.2011.648174
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1080/02699931.2011.648174 Abstract: The notion that emotional expressions regulate social life by providing information is gaining popularity. Prior research on the effects of emotional expressions on observers' inferential processes has focused mostly on inferences regarding the personality traits of the expresser, such as dominance and affiliation. We extend this line of research by exploring the possibility that emotional expressions shape observers' construal of social situations. Across three vignette studies, an interaction partner's expressions of anger, compared to expressions of happiness or disappointment, led observers to construe hypothetical situations as less cooperative, both in dyads and groups. These effects occurred even when factual information regarding the cooperativeness or competitiveness of the situation was provided, attesting to the power of emotional expressions in shaping the construal of social situations. Results are discussed in relation to appraisal theory, reverse appraisals, emotions as social information theory, and the emergence of cooperation in groups and cultures. ztiert von 58

(2009): Behavioral and emotional consequences of brief delays in human–computer interaction. In: International Journal of Human-Computer Studies 67 (7), S. 561-570. DOI: 10.1016/j.ijhcs.2009.02.004
Abstract: Evaluated negative effects of computer processing delays on user performance and emotional states. Specifically, it is proposed that unpredictable, sporadic, and random delays typical of modern computers inhibit the proficiency of human-computer interaction (HCI) and result in user performance decrements as well as negative emotional states such as job dissatisfaction, frustration and stress. The authors tested these effects by introducing a paradigm program designed to replicate the flow of user proficiency in the form of a computer game. The game was designed to provide a user interface (UI) under two conditions: a delay condition and a no-delay condition. 16 participants (age range 19-58 years) were recruited to play the game and respond to an in-game and postgame questionnaire to assess the effects of delays on their emotional states. Additionally, user reaction times (RTs) and error rates were measured. Results confirmed that user performance was significantly less proficient as a result of sporadic, brief delays. Error rates more than doubled and reaction times were prolonged by 33 ms for responses directly following the delay. Assessment of the questionnaires revealed that the participants felt annoyed by the delays and were frustrated in their attempts to achieve their goals. In conclusion, the findings suggest that UIs should be designed to minimize the occurrence of delays which hinder the proficiency of HCI. zitiert von 64

(2005): Cognitive and affective experiences of minority and majority members. The role of group size, status, and power. In: Journal of Experimental Social Psychology 41 (4), S. 396-413. DOI: 10.1016/j.jesp.2004.08.006
Abstract: Investigated the cognitive and affective experiences of members of minorities and majorities. Cognitive preoccupation with one's group membership and affective reactions are assumed to influence collective identification. Study 1 assigned subjects (n=61 college students, mean age 24 years) to a numerical majority or minority and measured cognitive preoccupation, emotional state, and collective identification with their ingroup. Minority members were more preoccupied with their group membership, experienced less positive affect, and identified more strongly with their ingroup. Study 2 (n=82, mean age 28 years) replicated these results irrespective of the group's relative status. Study 3 (n=102, mean age 23 years) showed that these findings only applied to groups with low power. However, collective identification was also increased in majorities with high power. The results were replicated in a field study involving a total of 194 college students (mean age 25 years) that categorized themselves as belonging to a majority or minority in one of seven social dimensions. The conceptual distinction of status and power and their interrelation in social groups is discussed, and implications for minority research are outlined. zitiert von 67

Abstract: Die Auslösung von vier Gefühlsqualitäten (Stolz, Freude, Ärger, Trauer) in Verbindung mit dem jeweiligen Interaktionskontext und dem Geschlecht der Betroffenen wird im natürlichen Kontext untersucht. Daten wurden an einer Stichprobe von je zwei Männern und Frauen mit Hilfe der Tagebuchmethode erhoben. Frauen registrierten in ihren Tagebüchern mehr gefühlsmäßige Stellungnahmen als Männer. Sowohl bei Männeren als auch bei Frauen überwogen positive Gefühle im Vergleich zu negativen. Die Familie hatte bei der Stimmungslage eine besondere Bedeutung. Sie war der Interaktionskontext, in dem die meisten Gefühle registriert wurden. Auch alltägliche Fremdkontakte hatten einen starken Einfluss auf die Stimmungslage.
