This book presents an extensive cross-cultural and cross-linguistic review of the meaning of emotion words, adopting a novel methodological approach. Based on the Component Process Model, the authors developed a new instrument to assess the meaning of emotion terms. This instrument, the GRID questionnaire, consists of a grid of 24 emotion terms spanning the emotion domain and 142 emotion features that operationalize five emotion components (Appraisals, Bodily reactions, Expressions, Action tendencies, and Feelings). For the operationalization of these five emotion components, very different emotion models from the Western and the cultural-comparative emotion literature were taken into account.
'Components of Emotional Meaning' includes contributions from psychological, cultural-comparative, and linguistic perspectives demonstrating how this new instrument can be used to empirically study very different research questions on the meaning of emotion terms. The implications of the results for major theoretical debates on emotion are also discussed.
For all researchers in the affective sciences, this book is an important new reference work.

About the Author
Klaus Scherer, born in 1943, studied economics and social sciences at the University of Cologne and the London School of Economics. Following his postgraduate studies in psychology, he obtained a Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1970. After teaching at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, and the University of Kiel, Germany, he was appointed, in 1973, full professor of social psychology at the University of Giessen, Germany. From 1985 to 2008, Klaus Scherer has been a full professor of psychology at the University of Geneva, Switzerland, and director of the Human Assessment Centre (Laboratoire d´Evaluation Psychologique). Since 2004 he is the Director of the Swiss Center for Affective Sciences at the University of Geneva. Apart from extensive theoretical work (Component Process Model), Scherer's research activities focus on different aspects of emotion and other affective states, in particular emotional expression and induction of emotion by music.
Cristina Soriano studied English philology at the University of Murcia (Spain), from which she also obtained a PhD in Linguistics. She further studied at the University of California, Berkeley and Hamburg University, where she specialized in cognitive linguistics. Since 2007 she has worked at the Swiss Center for Affective Sciences of the University of Geneva (Switzerland) as senior researcher on language and emotion. She conducts interdisciplinary research on cross-cultural emotion semantics, the metaphorical representation of concepts, the psycholinguistic investigation of conceptual metaphor, and the affective meaning of color. She is the executive officer of the GRID project and main researcher in a number of other studies on the linguistic representation of emotion concepts across cultures, with a special focus on conflict emotions.
