finally got to see Batja Mesquita after such a long time who kindly brought a copy of her new book (and signed it 🙏) on how cultures create emotions cannot wait to read it and look forward to contributions of Batja's European Research Council (ERC) REACH to emotional acculturation

We are organizing an online event (no travelling required) on decolonizing psychology. Any suggestions on speakers, possibly also researchers or practitioners who directly implement decolonization into their research philosophy or practices or developed approaches or methodology?

For the “Night of the Fury”, professor Mesquita is set to open the evening with a lecture on anger. Scheduled for March 9, 2024. For more information, visit Reach at buff.ly/48GNcoq.

We are excited to announce that the paperback edition of "Between Us: How Cultures Create Emotions" is now available! This edition brings the book's insights on the interplay between culture and emotions to an even wider audience. buff.ly/3v0OMUC

Professor Mesquita is featured in the audio guide for the art exhibition Turning Heads, National Gallery of Ireland, offering a social-psychological perspective on facial expressions and emotions. What do you perceive in this expression? Visit REACH at buff.ly/3v50qOa

In a recently published article in Behavioral Scientist, Katie Hoemann and Professor Batja Mesquita show that members of a hunter-gatherer community, known as the Hadza, describe their experiences of emotion differently from what is common in the West. buff.ly/491JwOt

"Between Us: How Cultures Create Emotions" is reaching a broader audience with its recent translations into Dutch, Polish, and Chinese! This marks a significant step in making the book’s insights accessible to readers across the globe. buff.ly/49ljmXc

After almost five incredible years working together, we’re saying goodbye to our fantastic project manager, Tom @tverthe. Thank you for this very pleasant collaboration. Wishing you all the best.

Can immigrant minorities experience emotional fit with both the majority and their ethnic cultures? Yes! Yeasle’s research shows immigrant-origin adolescents can experience emotional fit with both—a process known as emotional biculturalism. See paper: buff.ly/443IlNB

Moeten we over verlegenheid heen willen raken? In veel culturen wordt verlegenheid juist gewaardeerd, als een vorm van ‘je plaats kennen’ of ‘fatsoenlijk zijn’. Misschien kunnen we dat ook meer omarmen. Verlegenheid is deel van mens-zijn. Lees meer: buff.ly/4fnDzyv

What facilitates emotional biculturalism? (1/2) Friends! Friends act as “ambassadors” of culturally typical emotions. When minority adolescents have majority friends, they’re more likely to have higher emotional fit with the majority culture. Chapter 3: buff.ly/3Z7rJ6z
