| | Emotion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Emotion as the subject of scientific research has multiple dimensions: behavioral, physiological, subjective, and cognitive. |  | | William James in the 1800's believed that emotional experience is largely due to the experience of bodily changes. |  | | Emotions are mammalian elaborations of vertebrate arousal patterns, in which neurochemicals (e.g., dopamine, noradrenaline, and serotonin) step-up or step-down the brain's activity level, as visible in body movements, gestures, and postures. |

 | | Emotion, Thought and therapy: a Study of Hume and Spinoza and the Relationship of Philosophical Theories of the Emotions to Psychological Theories of Therapy. |  | | The simplest theory of emotions, and perhaps the theory most representative of common sense, is that emotions are simply a class of feelings, differentiated from sensation and proprioceptions by their experienced quality. |  | | Emotions in general should then be viewed as a genus of processes united by the organismic functions they serve, and individual emotions would owe their specific identity both to the subfunctions they are designed to serve and to their characteristic physiological implementation. |

| | Emotion, Movement and Psychological Space |
 | | De Rivera's understanding of emotion as a movement in interpersonal, psychological space is also consistent with the theories of anxiety of, for example, Sullivan (1953), Schachtel (1959), and Fischer (1991). |  | | Emotion, as a human phenomenon -- thus, as an existential -- must invariably be understood in terms of all of the existentials which, equiprimordially, compose the fabric of human existence. |  | | The logos of emotion begins in the pre-articulated experience of 'being moved' in some manner, yet, the already understood, implicit, lived ways of being-in-the-world as emotional are also shaped by the articulation of meaning through language.. |

| | Emotion Research: Cognitive Science/ Artificial Intelligence |
 | | The emotion model is embedded in one module of the overall architecture and emotion is used as a means of creating more veridical social behavior. |  | | Agents are capable of displaying emotions, changing their emotional state, and able to derive other agents' emotions from their observed behaviors. |  | | Some important emotions typically found in human beings, though possibly not in all other animals, such as humiliation, excited anticipation, infatuation, the thrill of discovery, despair, etc. are considered as emergent properties of the complex control systems comprising the cognitive apparatus and are not thought to be mediated by separate structures. |

| | The Emotions |
 | | The cognitive and situational component of emotion means that emotions are as varied as the circumstances of life, which means that the range and variety of emotions is great and complex -- as can be seen in the accompanying tables at left and right. |  | | Hume's view, while affirming the nature of the emotions as sources of conviction, denies their cognitive character, except in the sense that emotions may be explained as products of custom and history-- that reflecting Hume's political conservatism. |  | | While Solomon was long famous for asserting the cognitive character of emotion, he is nevertheless a Nietzschean and Existentialist, where the cognitive character of emotion may not amount to much when there is no objective character to moral and evaluative issues. |

| | Emotion |
 | | This is, no doubt, due to the fact that emotional response is complex to begin with, and is made even more complex by the fact that we add our thoughts and interpretations to them as well as just “experiencing” them as they are. |  | | One question that is asked repeatedly is “what are the basic emotions.” There have been dozens of answers to this, none of which have been completely satisfying. |  | | Delight is the emotional side of adaptation, of (believe it or not!) learning. |

| | Fallacy: Appeal to Emotion |
 | | As long as one is able to clearly distinguish between what inspires emotions and what justifies a claim, one is unlikely to fall prey to this fallacy. |  | | This fallacy is committed when someone manipulates peoples' emotions in order to get them to accept a claim as being true. |  | | More formally, this sort of "reasoning" involves the substitution of various means of producing strong emotions in place of evidence for a claim. |

| | James-Lange Theory of Emotion |
 | | It was largely supplanted by the Cannon-Bard theory, but of late, it has made something of a come-back, although the notion of causality is not as strong and there is ongoing uncertainty as to the chicken-and-egg question of which comes first, physiological and emotional feelings. |  | | Without the bodily states following on the perception, the latter would be purely cognitive in form, pale, colorless, destitute of emotional warmth. |  | | We have experiences, and as a result, our autonomic nervous system creates physiological events such as muscular tension, heart rate increases, perspiration, dryness of the mouth, etc. This theory proposes that emotions happen as a result of these, rather than being the cause of them. |

 | | In psychology and common use, emotion is an aspect of a human being's mental state, normally based in or tied to the person's internal (physical) and external (social) sensory feeling. |  | | Thus it is not difficult to defend the position that emotion is, to a high degree, dependent on social phenomena, expectations, norms, and conditioned behavior of the group in which an individual lives. |  | | William James in the 1800's believed that emotional experience is largely due to the experience of bodily changes. |

 | | Emotional experiences consist of thoughts, feelings, affective responses (e.g., sadness, anger, joy, determination), physiological responses (changes in internal bodily functioning), cognitive responses (e.g., a conceptual representation of an event), and behavioural responses (an outward expression such as flight or resistance). |  | | Emotion is the realm where thought and physiology are inextricably entwined, and where the 'self' is inseparable from our individual perceptions of value and judgement toward ourselves and others. |  | | Thus it is not difficult to defend the position that emotion is, to a high degree, dependent on social phenomena, expectations, norms, and conditioned behavior of the group in which an individual lives. |

| | LIFE AS A WHOLE: Emotion by Sanderson Beck |
 | | Physical experiences and the biochemical reactions in our bodies trigger emotions in the consciousness, and the conscious and subconscious responses of our emotional feelings stimulate biochemical processes in the body. |  | | How we feel about things is the central concern for people, because emotions mediate between our bodies with their physical perceptions and images of the world and our minds with their concepts and ideas. |  | | Sorrow is emotional pain from having suffered some psychological hurt, which may be caused by a wound from a personal attack, a loss of something held dear, a failure to achieve one's hopes or desires, or a concern for someone's misfortune. |

 | | Despite the recognition of the importance of emotion for human experience evidenced in the writings of both of psychology's founders, Wundt and James, "research and theory about emotions in mainstream psychology is strikingly impoverished" (Waters, 1992). |  | | In previous incarnations (the dark ages of emotion theory), emotion theory could be seen as subsumed by motivation theories and evolutionary theories of behaviour. |  | | That emotions might be better studied as components of the whole self, a self embedded in specific socio-historical relations, highlights the futility of reductionistic studies of human actors, and points to psychological studies of tripartite beings whose qualities of acting, thinking and feeling are necessarily intertwined. |
