Physiological Arousal
& Cognitive Interpretation of that Arousal |
|
According to James-Lange Theory, people experience Emotion b/c?
|
They Perceive their bodies Physiological Responses to External Events
Example: People do not Cry b/c they are sad, people feel sad b/c they cry People Do not Feel happy when they smile, but are happy b/c they are Smiling |
|
According to Cannon-Bard Theory, people experience Emotion b/c?
|
Happens at the Same Time that Physiological Arousal.
The brain gets a message that causes the experience of emotion at the same time that the autonomic nervous system gets a message that causes physiological arousal. |
|
If a person finds herself near an angry mob of people when she is physiologically aroused, she might label that arousal “anger.” On the other hand, if she experiences the same pattern of physiological arousal at a music concert, she might label the arousal “excitement.” Which Theory is this?
