Attribution und die Entstehung (negativer) Emotionen

Zusammenfassung

Ein Großteil der soziologischen Theorien der Emotionsentstehung geht davon aus, dass Emotionen in Prozessen der Definition von Situationen entstehen. Man nimmt also an, dass Individuen eine Situation kognitiv verarbeiten und eine spezifische Kombination von Einschätzungen zu bestimmten Emotionen führt. In einigen dieser Theorien wird Attribution als eine wesentliche Einschätzungsdimension aufgefasst, die die Emotionsentstehung entscheidend beeinflusst. Ich möchte im Folgenden zunächst einen kurzen Überblick über die dort unterstellten Mechanismen geben und so eine Grundlage für weitere systematische Untersuchungen schaffen. Durch eine Analyse des bisher in diesen Theorien diffusen Attributionsbegriffs können dann in einem zweiten Schritt jeweils zugrundeliegende – oft implizite – Annahmen weiter präzisiert und so zum einen systematische Vergleiche zwischen den Theorien vorgenommen und zum anderen die emotionalen Folgen von Attributionsprozessen tiefenschärfer erklärt werden.
