How do children learn about the expression and meaning of
emotions both happy and sad? This book answers questions regarding
the foundation of emotional intelligence, and examines how children
become emotionally literate as they are socialised into their
family environment from birth to 2 years of age. These early stages
are vitally important in teaching children to understand themselves
and others, as well as how to relate to people, and how to adapt to
and cope with their immediate surroundings.
In order to examine the development of emotional intelligence,
the author presents an overview of the literature on the subject
and in the second part of the book presents a case study in which
the concepts introduced in the first part of the book are
revisited. Based on daily tape-recorded conversations between a
baby and her father, the data demonstrate how, over a two-year
period, the child learns to express and understand emotions within
social interactions. This capacity to reason with emotions is
examined through four areas: perceiving emotion, integrating
emotion, understanding emotion and managing emotion.
The Development of Emotional Intelligence adds a new perspective
to the theoretical debate on emotions and how they develop. It will
be of great interest to psychologists and any professionals dealing
with families. It will also be helpful reading for parents.
