For more than a decade, there has been growing interest and research on the role of emotions in academic settings such as education, economics, neuroscience, anthropology, and the humanities. This handbook is the first to highlight research on emotions in education as well as research from related fields that informs this work. Section I focuses on fundamental principles and theories and the interplay among emotion, cognition, motivation, and the regulation of emotion. Section II examines emotions and emotion regulation in classroom settings. Section III highlights research on contextual factors (classroom, family, cultural), the content domains (mathematics, science, and reading/writing) as well as teacher emotions. The final section examines the various methodological approaches to studying emotions in educational settings. Key Features Unique, cutting-edge topic “ Research on emotion in education is an emerging field and this is the first handbook to provide a comprehensive review of it.
