Physicists Discover What Happens Inside a Stable Vortex
Large vortices with characteristic spiral arms are often observed in the atmosphere and the ocean. Physicists from HSE University have explained how these structures form and why they retain their shape. The researchers found that velocities at points located along the same vortex arc remain correlated even over long distances. At the same time, this correlation weakens rapidly with increasing distance from the vortex centre. These differences help explain the formation of spiral arms and may improve models of atmospheric and oceanic currents. The findings have been published in Physical Review Fluids.

Khestanov R., Логос 2026 Т. 36 № 3 С. 1–16
The article proposes an affective theory of social order, taking as its starting point the phenomenon of "Spanish shame" (ispanski styd) – the vicarious embarrassment experienced by a bystander witnessing another person's social failure. Tracing three competing etymological accounts of the expression, the author argues that the uncertainty of its origin is not a defect ...

Maitner A., DeCoster J., Andersson P. et al., Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology 2022 Vol. 53 No. 3-4 P. 263–288
Emotions are linked to wide sets of action tendencies, and it can be difficult to predict which specific action tendency will be motivated or indulged in response to individual experiences of emotion. Building on a functional perspective of emotion, we investigate whether anger and shame connect to different behavioral intentions in dignity, face, and honor ...

A functionalist account of shame-induced behaviour
Breugelmans S., De Hooge I. E., Zeelenberg M., Cognition and Emotion 2011 No. 25 P. 939–946
Recent research has shown that shame activates both a restore and a protect motive (De Hooge, Zeelenberg, & Breugelmans, 2010), explaining the hitherto unexpected finding that shame can lead to both approach and avoidance behaviours. In the present article we show a clear difference in priority and development of restore and protect motives over time. Our experiment reveals that shame mainly motivates ...

Restore and protect motivations following shame
Breugelmans S., De Hooge I. E., Zeelenberg M., Cognition and Emotion 2010 No. 24 P. 111–127
Shame has been found to promote both approach and withdrawal behaviours. Shame theories have not been able to explain how shame can promote such contrasting behaviours. In the present article, the authors provide an explanation for this. Shame was hypothesised to activate approach behaviours to restore the threatened self, and in situations when this is not possible or too risky, to activate withdrawal behaviours ...

Moral sentiments and cooperation: Differential influences of shame and guilt
Breugelmans S., De Hooge I. E., Zeelenberg M., Cognition and Emotion 2007 No. 21 P. 1025–1042
For centuries economists and psychologists (Frank, 1988; Ketelaar, 2004; Smith, 1759) have argued that moral emotions motivate cooperation. Ketelaar and Au (2003) recently found first evidence that guilt increasescooperation for proselfs in social bargaining games. We investigated whether this effect would also occur for shame, another moral emotion. Using a dyadic social dilemma game in Experiment 1 and an everydaycooperation measure in Experiment 2 as ...

Not so ugly after all: Endogenous shame acts as a commitment device
Breugelmans S., De Hooge I. E., Zeelenberg M., Journal of Personality and Social Psychology 2008 No. 95 P. 933–943
Most psychological theories and research on shame focus on the uglyaspects and negative consequences of this emotion. Theories on moral emotions, however, assume that shame acts as a commitment devicemotivating prosocial behavior. To solve this apparent paradox, the authors studied the effects of shame on prosocial behavior. Shame was hypothesized to motivate prosocial behavior when it was relevant for the decision at hand (endogenous). In contrast, shame that was ...

Emotion without a word. Shame and guilt with Rarámuri Indians and rural Javanese
Breugelmans S., Poortinga Y. H., Journal of Personality and Social Psychology 2006 No. 91 P. 1111–1122
The Raramuri Indians in Mexico use 1 word for guilt and shame. In this article, the authors show that the Raramuri nevertheless differentiate between shame and guilt characteristics, similar to cultural populations that use 2 words for these emotions. Emotion-eliciting situations were collected among the Raramuri and among rural Javanese and were rated on shameand guilt by Dutch and Indonesian students. These ratings were used to select 18 shame-eliciting and guilt-eliciting situations as stimuli. TheRaramuri (N = 229) and the Javanese (N = 213) rated the ...
