MARIAL CENTER COLLOQUIUM
Heather Willihnganz and Leah Wingard
(UCLA Sloan Center on Everyday Lives of Families)
Emotion Work in Families
Wednesday, September 29, 4:00 p.m.-6:00 p.m.
This talk reviews the divergent ways that researchers
have understood the concept of emotion work. The presenters show
instances of emotion work in naturally occurring family interaction
and suggest that a better overall understanding of the concept may
be achieved in this way.
