The topics on the cross-cultural differences and universals in the interpersonal communication of emotion via facial expressions are argued from a psychological point of view. Facial expressions of emotion take the fundamental roles in the basic interpersonal communication as the media which works to formalize the infants' attachment to care-givers and as the signals that indicate positive and/or negative evaluations in social and direct learning processes. These roles are realized by the universal features of the facial expressions of emotion, that is, the universal expressions and recognitions of emotion, the very early acquisition of the expressions, the function as the source of subjective feelings via facial feedback or facial efferent, and the imitation and contagion processes which transmit the expressions. Although facial expressions of emotion are universal, the interpretations of the expressions can vary among situations and cultures. The differences of the interpretations are explained by assuming cultural display rules. As an example, a cross-cultural analysis of the expressions of emotion is summarized and discussed in terms of the differences in display rules between Japanese and Americans. Finally, a social-biofeedback model is presented which explains the process of acquisition of the rules which control the expressions. It is emphasized that the examinations of the underlying universal mechanisms are essential to deepen the understanding of the interpersonal communication of emotion and its differences among cultures.
