“…As Eid and Diener (2001) pointed out, a Chinese sample consistently showed the lowest experiences in almost all emotions, because Chinese culture considers emotions as dangerous, irrelevant or even illness-causing. Regulation strategies, such as the suppression of emotions, are generally suggested to be highly valued in East Asian cultures, and the value of a moderated emotional life can also be found in these cultures (Trnka, Šolcová, & Tavel, 2018). Future research on cross-cultural differences in emotion-related values should provide us with further insights into various levels of EC in different countries and cultures.…”

Emotional creativity (EC) is a pattern of cognitive abilities and personality traits related to originality and appropriateness in emotional experience. EC has been found to be related to various constructs across different fields of psychology during the past 30 years, but a comprehensive examination of previous research is still lacking. The goal of this review is to explore the reliability of use of the Emotional Creativity Inventory (ECI) across studies, to test gender differences and to compare levels of EC in different countries. Thirty-five empirical studies focused on EC were retrieved and the coefficients required for the meta-analysis extracted. The meta-analysis revealed that women showed significantly higher EC than men (total N = 3,555). The same gender differences were also found when testing scores from three ECI subscales, i.e. emotional novelty, emotional preparedness and emotional effectiveness/authenticity. When comparing EC in 10 different countries (total N = 4,375), several cross-cultural differences were revealed. The Chinese sample showed a significantly lower average ECI total score than all the other countries. Based on the integration of results, the avenues for future research on EC and the breadth of influence of the concept of EC across different fields of psychology are discussed.

“…Lidské emoce jsou tedy nutně propojeny s jazykem, ve kterém komunikujeme, i s kulturou, ve které žijeme a se kterou interagujeme (např. Trnka et al 2018). Proto se nám zdá legitimní řešit otázku, co zahrnuje lužickosrbský "HNĚW", pouze z hlediska lingvistiky.…”

Artykuł dotyczy rozwoju walencji predykatów wyrażających negatywne emocje w języku górnołużyckim. Opierając się na korpusie Hotko, porównuję zakres znaczeń dwóch najbardziej powszechnych i w dużej mierze synonimicznych rdzeni -hněw- i -mjerz-. Dane pokazują, że rdzeń -mjerz- występuje częściej w młodszych tekstach i częściej obejmuje emocje o niższym natężeniu niż rdzeń -hněw-. Specyficzne znaczenie poszczególnych predykatów można określić w tekstach m.in. poprzez różne dopełnienia walencyjne, które często mają strukturę równoległą o podobnym znaczeniu w języku niemieckim i czeskim. Abstrakt Článek se zabývá vývojem valence predikátů vyjadřujících negativní emoce v hornolužické srbštině. Na základě korpusu Hotko porovnává škálu významů dvou nejčastějších a do značné míry synonymních kořenů -hněw- a -mjerz-. Data ukazují, že kořen -mjerz- je v mladších textech častější a že častěji pokrývá emoce nižší intenzity než kořen -hněw-. Specifický význam jednotlivých predikátů může být v textech upřesněn mj. právě různými valenčními doplněními, která často mají paralelní strukturu s podobným významem v němčině i v češtině.

“…Thus, the way worry is felt and expressed is not only biologically determined but also influenced by cultural context [ 12 ]. Cross-cultural studies have shown that emotions and their expression, valence, and regulation vary among countries with different cultural values [ 13 , 14 , 15 ].…”

Background: Dementia worry is a widespread phenomenon and the most common emotional reaction elicited by the threat of developing dementia in the future. The cultural factors of dementia worry have not been examined widely, although dementia can be perceived differently between cultures and lead to varying levels of dementia worry. The purpose of this study was to examine the level of dementia worry and factors associated with it cross-nationally in Israel and Australia. Methods: A cross-sectional, online survey was conducted with two age-matched adult samples (447 participants in Israel and 290 in Australia). The primary outcome measure was the 12-item Dementia Worry Scale. Results: Israeli participants (mean age = 42.5 years; 50.1% female) reported statistically significantly (p < 0.05) higher levels of concern about developing dementia in comparison to Australian participants (mean age = 43.7 years; 49.8% female). Increased ageism and increased perceptions about the likelihood of developing dementia were the most important factors associated with increased worry. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that country may not be the best criterion to assess cultural differences and should be accompanied by the participants’ assessment of their cultural tendencies. Our study also stresses the importance of conceptualizing and assessing affective and cognitive aspects of dementia worry, as people from different cultures might perceive dementia worry cognitively differently but affectively similar and vice-versa.
