|
what is the assumption w/ basic emotion approaches? |
variability in emotional responding results from phenomenal social factors, like display rules |
|
|
appraisal approaches |
emotional responses arise from analyzing the meaning of a situation; differing analysis accounts for emotional variability |
|
|
social constructionist approach to emotion |
emotional responses are formed by interactions with surrounding people; emotional variability due to differing interactions (especially culturally) |
|
|
psychological constructionist approaches to emotion (peripheralist) |
psychological events of emotion are mental events that result from the interplay of evolved, basic psychological ingredients |
|
|
conceptual act model |
categorization is central; emotional word (e.g. fear) corresponds to common-sense category, consisting of range of mental events. these events are formed from with basic psyc ingredients |
|
|
what is the conceptual act model grounded in? |
observation that every moment results from a combo of three sources of stimulation |
|
|
what are the 3 combinations of source stimulation that make up the basic psychological ingredients of mental life? (EIP) |
sensations by.. 1. external world (light) 2. inner body (aka internal milieu) 3. prior experience, made available by brain activation and inhibition |
|
|
what is the first hypothesis of the conceptual act model? |
mental events, aka ‘‘emotion’’, are constructed from the 3 psychologically primitive ingredients (not reducible); they're always interacting |
|
|
what is the 1/3 psychologically primitive ingredients that are always in play? |
system representing physical states, experienced to degree of pleasant or unpleasant arousal |
|
|
what is the 2/3 psychologically primitive ingredients that are always in play? |
human system representing emotion, evident through memory; more limited in ape forms |
|
|
what is the 3/3 psychologically primitive ingredients that are always in play? |
controlled attention to what mental event is conceptually activated or suppressed |
|
|
what is the key distinguishing feature of the conceptual act model? |
concepts of emotions are varied; not rigid, are flexible, and their ingredient combination can be reconfigured |
|
|
what is another key aspect of the conceptual act model? |
controlled attn of individuals to different concepts accounts for emotional variability |
|
|
cognitive module |
fast, domain-specific processes evolved to handle specific info |
|
|
what're people with more attentional control better able to do? |
incorporate new info into existing categories, broadening concept of emotion; use emotional intelligence to better direct behaviour |
|
|
what is the second hypothesis of the conceptual act model? |
psychological primitives can make any number of different recipes |
|
|
what is the third hypothesis of the conceptual act model? |
psychological primitives are not emotion-specific; can be used in the construction of a variety of moments, not restricted |
|
|
pathology of the distributed circuitry for core affect
|
coordinates sensory processing in cortical mantle via bottom-up/top-down routes, projecting directly/indirectly to sensory cortices |
|
|
final hypothesis of the conceptual act model |
language is central to constructing emotional instances |
|
|
what does the final hypothesis suggest about the importance of words? |
words provide top-down context in emotion. emotions/faces can be interpreted according to the language context given |
|
|
what may cause cultural differences in feeling? |
cultural differences in emotional language may = cultural differences in feeling/emotional concepts. |
|
|
what does the final hypothesis suggest about emotional language as a skill? |
training/expanding emotional language can help build emotional intelligence/experience |
