On November 22, Gallup released an interesting report.
It surveyed people in 151 countries all over the world from 2009 to
2011. The survey looked into the daily emotions of each country¡¯s
1,000 participants of people aged
over 15.
It asked them whether they experienced five positive
or five negative emotions and their
frequencies on the previous
day. Negative experiences include anger, stress, sadness,
physical pain, and worry.
Positive emotions include feeling well-rested, being treated with respect, enjoyment, smiling
and laughing a lot, and learning or doing something interesting.
According
to Gallup, Singaporeans are the least
likely to experience emotions of any kind on a daily basis. Only 36
percent say they express positive or negative feelings daily. Korea
ranked 20th with 40 percent
not really showing how they feel. Negative emotions are highest in
the Middle East and North Africa. People in Iraq, Bahrain, and Palestine turned
out to experience the most negative emotions on a daily basis.
On the other hand , people
in Latin America experience positive emotions in their daily lives.
Among Latin American countries, people in Panama, Paraguay, and Venezuela
turned out to experience the most positive emotions.
However, Latin Americans are not the most expressive people in the
world. People living in the Philippines are the most emotional in
the world! Six in 10 Filipinos said they experienced
a lot of these feelings daily. |
