Abstract

This study aims to figure out how major variables of emotional experience and expression such as affect intensity, emotional attention, emotional clarity and ambivalence over emotional expression are combined to form a certain spontaneous group, and whether personal differences in this emotional process lead to any difference in interpersonal ability and psychological wellbeing. As a result of cluster analysis targeting a total of 337 local university students(184 male students and 153 female ones), the subjects were divided into three groups: first, ‘Confusion Group’ with high affect intensity, emotional attention, average emotional clarity and high ambivalence over emotional expression; second, ‘Repression Group’ with low affect intensity, emotional attention, emotional clarity and high ambivalence over emotional expression; last, ‘Honesty Group’ with high emotional attention, emotional clarity, affect intensity slightly below the average and low ambivalence over emotional expression. This study found a significant difference in interpersonal ability and psychological wellbeing between the groups. ‘Honesty Group’ was generally most adaptive and ‘Repression Group’ turned out to be most inadaptable. Lastly, the implications and limitations of this study were also discussed based on the research findings.
