Abstract: Self-conscious emotions (SCE) are based on self-evaluation of individual, and are produced by self-reflection. There are some relationships and differences between SCE and basic emotions. Self-awareness, self-representation and self-evaluation are the most important elements for the production of SCE. The main functions of SCE are to adjust the self-regulation of the individual’s behavior, serve interpersonal communication and reciprocity, and serve the need of intra-psychics. SCE are formed and developed following the development of cognition. SCE are also influenced by culture. The main methods of SCE include self-report scales, coding of nonverbal behavior skills, verbal reports and behavioral measures, and measures on nerve imaging. The universality and particularity of SCE need to be validated through cross-culture study
