“…Similarly, there was also a cultural difference in the relation between contempt or anger and immorality: Both for Americans and Japanese, anger word, contempt word, and anger face were significantly correlated with immorality rating, whereas for Indians, only anger word was significantly correlated with immorality. Such findings signal cultural differences in the use of emotion concepts and demands more detailed attention (see Han et al, ; Kayyal & Russell, ; Kollareth & Russell, ).…”

“…The words used for anger, contempt, sadness, fear and happiness in Malayalam were deshyam, pucham, sankadam, bhayam and santhosham , respectively. These Malayalam words were found to be translation equivalents of their respective English words (Han, Kollareth, & Russell, ; Kollareth & Russell, ). Those words in Japanese used in the present study were ikari, keibetsu, kanashimi, osore and yorokobi respectively, which were also reported to be equivalent to English words (Russell, Russell, Suzuki, & Ishida, ).…”

Do community and autonomy moral violations elicit different emotions?

According to one important set of theories, different domains of immorality are linked to different discrete emotions-panculturally. Violations against the community elicit contempt, whereas violations against an individual elicit anger. To test this theory, American, Indian and Japanese participants (N = 480) indicated contempt and anger reactions (with verbal rating and face selection) to both the types of immorality. To remedy method problems in previous research, community and autonomy violations were created for the same story-frame, by varying the target to be either the community or an individual. Community and autonomy violations did not differ significantly in the emotion elicited: overall, both types of violations elicited more anger than contempt (and more negative emotion of any kind than positive emotion). By verbal rating, Americans and Indians reported more anger than contempt for both types of violation, whereas Japanese reported more contempt than anger for both types. By face selection, the three cultural groups selected anger more than contempt for both types of violation. The results speak against defining distinct domains of morality by their association with distinct emotions.

“…It is important to note that not all English-language emotion concepts have direct translations in every language (50,51). Nevertheless, studies of the facial muscle movements that English-speakers associate with the CK28 emotions indicate that they are used across the modern world in similar circumstances, regardless of language (24,52,53).…”

Central to science and technology are questions about how to measure facial expression. The current gold standard is the facial action coding system (FACS), which is often assumed to account for all facial muscle movements relevant to perceived emotion. However, the mapping from FACS codes to perceived emotion is not well understood. Six prototypical configurations of facial action units (AU) are sometimes assumed to account for perceived emotion, but this hypothesis remains largely untested. Here, using statistical modeling, we examine how FACS codes actually correspond to perceived emotions in a wide range of naturalistic expressions. Each of 1456 facial expressions was independently FACS coded by two experts (r = .84, κ = .84). Naive observers reported the emotions they perceived in each expression in many different ways, including emotions (N = 666); valence, arousal and appraisal dimensions (N =1116); authenticity (N = 121), and free response (N = 193). We find that facial expressions are much richer in meaning than typically assumed: At least 20 patterns of facial muscle movements captured by FACS have distinct perceived emotional meanings. Surprisingly, however, FACS codes do not offer a complete description of real-world facial expressions, capturing no more than half of the reliable variance in perceived emotion. Our findings suggest that the perceived emotional meanings of facial expressions are most accurately and efficiently represented using a wide range of carefully selected emotion concepts, such as the Cowen & Keltner (2019) taxonomy of 28 emotions. Further work is needed to characterize the anatomical bases of these facial expressions.

“…Nevertheless, the three subscales may not tap the same underlying emotional experience. Particularly for the moral disgust subscale, responses might also reflect more generic moral disapproval or negative affect, given the multiple meanings of "disgust" in English (Kollareth & Russell, 2017). Likewise, the TDDS sexual disgust subscale may tap sexual restrictiveness in addition to (or instead of) a genuine affective reaction; it correlates highly with other measures of sociosexuality (i.e., willingness to engage in commitment-free sex) and has often been used interchangeably with them (Tybur & Karinen, 2018).…”

How Disgust Affects Social Judgments

The emotion of disgust has been claimed to affect a diverse array of social judgments, including moral condemnation, inter-group prejudice, political ideology, and much more. We attempt to make sense of this large and varied literature by reviewing the theory and research on how and why disgust influences these judgments. We first describe two very different perspectives adopted by researchers on why disgust should affect social judgment. The first is the pathogen-avoidance account, which sees the relationship between disgust and judgment as resulting from disgust’s evolved function as a pathogen-avoidance mechanism. The second is the extended disgust account, which posits that disgust functions much more broadly to address a range of other threats and challenges. We then review the empirical evidence to assess how well it supports each of these perspectives, arguing that there is more support for the pathogen-avoidance account than the extended account. We conclude with some testable empirical predictions that can better distinguish between these two perspectives.
