The blush is a ubiquitous yet little understood phenomenon which
can be triggered by a number of self-conscious emotions such as
shame, embarrassment, shyness, pride and guilt. The field of
psychology has seen a recent surge in the research of such
emotions, yet blushing remains a relatively neglected area. This
unique volume brings together leading researchers from a variety of
disciplines to review emerging research on the blush, discussing in
depth issues that have arisen and stimulating new theorizing to
indicate future directions for research. Topics covered include:
the psychophysiology of the blush; developmental aspects;
measurement issues; its evolutionary significance and the role of
similar colour signals in the social life of other species; its
relation to embarrassment, shame and social anxiety; and the
rationale for, and clinical trials of, interventions to help people
suffering from blushing phobia.
