The goal of this article is to discuss theoretical arguments concerning the idea that emotional mimicry is an intrinsic part of our social being and thus can be considered a social act. For this, we will first present the theoretical assumptions underlying the Emotional Mimicry as Social Regulator view. We then provide a brief overview of recent developments in emotional mimicry research and specifically discuss new developments regarding the role of emotional mimicry in actual interactions and relationships, and individual differences in emotional mimicry. We conclude with open questions for future research.
本文旨在探讨关于情绪模仿是我们社会存在的固有部分，因此可以被视为一种社会行为的理论观点。为此，我们首先将介绍情感模仿作为社会调节者观点的理论假设。然后，我们将简要概述情绪模仿研究的最新进展，并特别讨论情绪模仿在实际互动和关系中的作用以及情绪模仿个体差异方面的新发展。最后，我们为未来的研究提出了一些开放性问题。
