The first book to examine emotional development from birth to
adulthood, Development of Emotions and Their Regulation fills in
significant gaps in the literature by integrating major
developmental theories of emotion with robust research on emotion
regulation in adults. Noted German psychologists Holodynski and
Friedlmeier have written a work that takes on dominant theories
such as the desomatization of emotion as people attain maturity, as
well as more recent contextual models of emotional growth.
The authors define emotion in terms of attendant expression,
feeling, and physical reaction, and describe its development in
terms of both universal and culture-specific contexts. This
trajectory is characterized first by the origination of emotions
and later the move from interpersonal to intrapersonal emotion
regulation, including:
- Processes that occur during emotional development, starting
with infancy
- Links between childrena (TM)s emotions and communication
strategies
- The key role of caregiversa (TM) communication in the childa
(TM)s emotional development
- How emotions become nuanced and individualized during the
school years
- The intricate relationship between emotional development and
emotion regulation as the person reaches adulthood.
Surprising and often startling in its conclusions, Development
of Emotions and Their Regulation is sure to spark controversy among
students, researchers, and practitioners in the developmental
field. It may also signal a paradigm shift in the making.
