Emotion work
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Emotion work is a concept with two different meanings.
Arlie Hochschild in 1983 used it describe the conscious manipulation of feeling to create a publicly observable facial and bodily display (Ragin, 1994).
Emotion work has also been defined as the management of one's own feelings or as "work done in a conscious effort to maintain the well being of a relationship"[1].
