Most of the theories and models of emotion rarely analyze the relationship of the different social emotions. They often try to separate one or a few of the emotions and to make precise and detailed analyses of such emotions. Because of the importance of the integrative view of social emotions, this paper introduces a global theory of emotion, developmental-interactionist theory (Buck, 1985, 1999) and examines the explanation on higher-level social emotions proposed by the theory. It is hypothesized that the combinations of social contingencies such as success or failure to meet social needs (i.e., to be loved or to follow expectations) and person to be accepted (self versus others) determine social emotions to be experienced and that depending on such social contingencies social emotions themselves have specific relationships among them. Empirical questionnaire study with 69 Japanese college students was performed to examine the hypotheses. The results supported the most of the hypotheses and reflected the validity of the theory. It is suggested that the analyses of the relationships among social emotions as well as the analyses on the individual emotions will be inevitable to deepen the understanding of social emotions and that the theory makes a contribution in presenting a new direction to the study of social emotions.
