E.J. Looby, R.C. Page & K.C. Ruammake |
Utilizing
the evaluative and potency scales of the semantic differential, this
study examined differences in perceptions of three feeling states,
Love, Anger, and Guilt, among university students from the United
States and Thailand. It was found that students from the United States
rated the potency of Love higher and evaluated the concept of Anger
higher than students from Thailand. There were no significant gender
differences when males and females from the two countries were compared.
