It is an honor to be able to engage Ezequiel Di Paolo’s and David Sander’s reflections on relational conceptions of emotional development. In this reply, I elaborate on the role of emotion in the open-ended construction of self. Di Paolo suggests that emotions are “collectively constituted ways of regulating human becoming” (2020, p. 229); Sander (2020) maintains that as felt modes of engagement, emotions play a central role in processes related to teaching, learning, and education. These assertions are consistent with the idea that emotional experiences develop as a product of relations that occur between persons, and that the relational construction of emotion lies at the center of the developmental construction of personhood.

能够参与Ezequiel Di Paolo和David Sander对情感发展的关系概念的思考是一种荣幸。在此答复中，我将详细阐述情绪在自我开放式建构中的作用。迪保罗说，情感是“共同构成调节人类成长的方式”（2020年，第229页）。Sander（2020）坚持认为，作为参与的感觉方式，情感在与教学，学习和教育相关的过程中起着核心作用。这些主张与以下观点一致：情感体验是人与人之间关系的产物，而情感的关系建构是人格发展建构的核心。
