CHAPTER 8:EMOTION
->
keywords:Emotions, James-lange, cannon bard, schater-singer theories, facial, feedback hypothesis, emotion regulation
·Emotion -> are complex psychological i nvolve a
events that mixture of psychological arousal, expressive reactions and subjective experience
-> The two key features ofemotion
o
valence:Emotions are either positive or negative (neg valence:bad//positive valence:good)
· Arousal:Emotions are related to psychological activity
-> The statistical technique used to determine the emotion circumplex
is called multidimensional scaling
-> some people believe thatyou feel a physiologicalrun because ofyour emotion but, maybe not
-> WILLIAM JAMES (1884):Bodilychanges follow directly w/ the perception of the exciting fact and feeling t he same
of changes as they occur is the emotion
o James -
lange:Event -> crousal interpretation - emotion
-
Physiological ran preceds emotion
->
Each emotion follows from a unique pattern ofresponses
-> cannon-bard theory:Emotion andphysiological response happens at the same time
·
Arguments for cannon-bard:
1) Emotions happen quicklyeven when body
reacts (e.g. blush)
slowly
2) Hard to detects ome bodily
changes -
like heart rate
3) Non-emotional stimuli (e.g. increase in room temps also causes physio response (e.g. Sweating), butwe don'tusually consider that emotional experience.
4) Not
e nough profiles physiology to accountfor
of all mightbe more
emotions. Physiology general.
-> schater andsinger experiment

The injection:subjects given "vitamin injections"// injections actually were epinephrine
·Expectations:Half the subjects were told s ide fx
to expect Carousal) // Half were not told to expect side effects
· Interaction:participants in a room w/an
were placed accomplice t he
of experimenter 11 accomplice was either euphoric or angry
-> o fexperiment
key point -> same physiology
may be interpreted in differentways
-> SO WHICHTHEORY WAS RIGHT? LETS REFRESH

James -
lange:Physical response does differ a cross emotions.
somewhat
o cannon-bard:we do have a hard time "reading all the different
profiles; sometimes our awareness of specific patterns of physical response is limited.
Two-factor:we can sometimes interpretsimilar patterns of arousal differently, though perhaps this happens mostamong the most similar emotions.

out we are still uncovering new things about emotions.
