This study aims to describe and identify shame and guilty emotions among older generation of Batak Toba people as compared to the younger generation. Fifty participants from each of the older generation and the younger generation were asked to complete Test of Self-Conscious Affect 3 (TOSCA-3). In addition, three older and three younger participants were individually interviewed to get a more complete picture on the socialization of Batak Toba cultural values and emotion. Results show that there are significant differences on shame emotion between older and younger generations t(98) = 5.104, p<.001, but not on guilty emotion t(98) = 1.912, p>.001. From the interviews it was clear that there are both similarities and differences between the two generations on the kinds of situation that bring shame emotion and the expression of it. For guilty emotion, there was a significant difference between older and younger generations were found between older and younger generations. Socialization for shame and guilty emotions for both generations came from families, schools, friends, and Church teachings.
