Other-Evaluative and Self-Conscious Emotions
Captions available
The idea
Michael Lewis's secondary emotions deepen in middle childhood: other-evaluative emotions such as jealousy and compassion, and self-conscious emotions such as pride, guilt and embarrassment.
In practice
A nine-year-old's jealousy of a friend's new bicycle lasting for days.
Where people slip
Distraction, which worked at four, often no longer works; parents still help children process these emotions.
