Resultsshow that Asians has a stronger normative system of emotional display rules than other groups. Theyalso show lower gender differences. In order to predict lower emotional verbal and non verbal expressionthe most important cultural dimension is cultural masculinity. High power distance cultures fosteremotional reactions which respect and legitimize status differences. This dimension also predicts alower verbal expression of negative emotions. On the other hand, Uncertainty Avoidance is not generallyassociated to a high emotional expression. Finally. Communicating good feelings to other peopleis more typical of collectivistic and high power distance countries."
