The instantiation of emotion in conversations between romantic partners, male friends, female friends, and cross-sex friends

The purpose of this study was to explore how natural language users employ emotional expressions in conversation with close relational partners. Three research questions were addressed: (1) How is emotion instantiated in conversation between close relational partners, (2) What are the consequences of that instantiation for the social functions of emotions within the developing conversation, (3) How is the frequency and form of the instantiation of emotion in conversation differentially influenced by varying relational definitions shared by interactants?
