Sažetak
Basic emotions, such as anger, grief, fear and happiness, are essential human emotions,
possibly universal and shaped by evolution and biology. However, unlike animals, humans
are creative creatures, and the highest expression of that creativity is culture. Consciously
or unconsciously we adopt the biggest part of our culture and thus shape our emotions in
a socially desirable way. We have performed a detailed analysis of cultural similarities and
differences in certain components of the emotional process. We have analysed one basic
emotion, anger, and compared various aspects of the emotional process as proposed by the
cognitive model of emotions. Specifically, we have pointed out similarities and differences
in cultures regarding the events which provoke anger, the assessment of particular events,
physiological reactions, readiness to act, the expression and control of action.
