Culture moderates the cardiovascular consequences of anger regulation strategy
چکیده انگلیسی

PurposeThis research examined cultural differences in experiential and cardiovascular outcomes of three anger regulation strategies (expression, suppression and reappraisal).MethodsForty-five Chinese and 45 Caucasian females participated in a laboratory experiment in which role play was used to induce anger. During this role play participants were instructed to either express or suppress their feelings or engage in cognitive reappraisal. Emotional experience was measured before and after the role play. Cardiovascular indices were measured continuously during the experiment.ResultsSignificant interactions were obtained such that Caucasians showed stronger cardiovascular responses to suppression than expression of anger whereas the opposite was true for Chinese.ConclusionsThese results demonstrate that physiological consequences of emotion regulation strategies vary by cultural background. Possible reasons as well as implications of these findings are discussed.


► Chinese show greater use of reappraisal than Caucasians when dealing with anger.
► Chinese show stronger cardio response to expressing than suppressing anger.
► Caucasians show stronger cardio response to suppressing than expressing anger.
