emotion
Who made the earliest written record of formal categories of emotions?

What belief were they based in?
Galen - 4 humours

Based on the belief that ideas, thoughts, or cognitions were divinely inspired
What did James & Lange's Visceral Theory propose?
that emotions reflect interpretation of visceral sensations

-emotional reactions occur before awareness (gut reacts, head interprets)
What are the problems w/ James & Lange's Visceral Theory?
-as perceptions change, so do feelings
-gut response can occur w/o affective
-quadriplegics can't feel their gut reactions still have full range of affect
-gut is too slow (protopathic) & imprecise
What is Limbic Theory?
-underlies memory & emotionality
-stimulation produces emotions & lesions change emotionality & cognition
-re-intro'd notion of limbic system

-Papez & MacLean's theory
What is the Temporal-limbic-hypothalamic axis?
the emotional axis
What is the Thalamic Theory of emotionality?
-by Cannon & Bard

-that our perception of a situation at the thalamic level activates the gut

Caveat:
-thalamus is at the cross-roads of all sensations (but smell) & thus the
What is the golden age of psychology?
The 1880s

-4 Humours
-Visceral Theory
-Thalamic Theory
-LImbic Theory
Who introduced the notion of visceral homeostasis and cognitive homeostasis?
Cannon & Bard
Who introduced the concept of homeostasis & self regulation as aspects of emotionality and the ANS?
Cannon (also created Thalamic Theory w/Bard)
What did Papez & MacLean say underlies memory and emotion?

Why?
Limbic System - b/c it processes smell

The Limbic Theory
Describe Zajonc's "facial reafference"
-said it was a component of emotionality
-cited how infants & toddlers look at faces to determine responses

"putting on a happy face"
2 Factor theory of emotionality (contextual arousal)
Schacter & Singer

-That emotion is strongly reactive to context/function of cognitive factors & physiological arousal

-focused on emotion cueing for subjective experience (injected ppl w/adrenaline but said it was a vitamin; how ppl interpreted their arousal depended on what context they were put in)
What is Karl Pribram's theory?
that the mind is a verb (a process)
-says dissonance happens when something happens in a way we aren't used to (i.e. away from homeostasis)
Pribram's theory on Cognitive Homeostasis Models-

What structures does dissonance trigger? Why?
Lateral Limbic Structures (amygdala & hippocampus)

To return to baseline/interpret whether something is a threat or not
Pribram's theory on Cognitive Homeostasis Models-

What kinds of feelings does dissonance trigger? What can we tell based on their severity/quality?
Negative ones

Severity/quality tells us what needs to happen to restore homeostasis
Pribram's theory on Cognitive Homeostasis Models-

Dissonance is _______ while restoration is ________
Dissonance = negative

Restoration = positive
Pribram:

_____ are unexperienced states of imbalance.
______ are the experience of needs & specify _____, or what is needed to fulfill the need
NEEDS are unexperienced states of imbalance. DRIVES are the experience of needs & specify GOALS, or what is needed to fulfill the need.
