摘要:In recent years,there has been a growing interest specifically in the emotional aspects of parent-child interaction,as emotion is an impor- tant factor through which parent and children communicate (Eisenberg,Fabes,& Murphy,1996; 2001;2003;Fabes,2003). However,relatively litle is known about the role of culture in parent- child emotional interaction. The present study sought to extend existing knowledge of the affective quality of parent-child interactions by examining the ermotional reactions in triadic family interactions. Specifically,parents' and children's emotional responses to fil/success right after teaching-task completion were explored CrOss- culturally In adition,the role of gender in emotional expressivity in family interactions was investigated.
