This research explores the cultural characteristics of Chinese college students, noting the evolving shift towards individualism while maintaining interdependent self-construction. The study, conducted through World Values Survey analysis and questionnaire-based assessments, reveals an increasing trend of individualistic behaviors among the younger generation, yet highlights the persistent influence of interdependence on emotional contagion abilities, particularly noting a negative correlation between anxious contagion and independent self-construction.
This study investigates the impact of cultural shifts on individual values, focusing on changes in ideal affect (IA) and emotional patterns from Traditionality to Modernity in Chinese society. Findings suggest that individuals with modern values exhibit higher arousal in their ideal affect, influencing emotional body language (EBL) recognition, while those with traditional values tend towards lower arousal and neutrality, indicating a correlation between cultural changes and emotional perception.
