What are the four pirmanry aspects of emotion?
Feeling
Physiological arousal
Actions
Motivational programs
What does feelings refer to?
private and subjective experience of an emotional state
What is physiological arousal?
activation of distinct somatic and autonomic systems.
What does actions refer to?
the behavior that accompanies a particular emotional feeling, such as attacking or fleeing.
What are motivational programs?
they provide superordinate coordination of responses in order to solve specific adaptive problems.
strong emotion—such as butterflies in the stomach, dry mouth, blushing—are attributable to activity in the...
Autonomic nervous system
The James–Lange theory
According to this theory, emotions are perceived when we experience the bodily sensations that are triggered by particular stimuli.
What are the four pairs of opposing emotions as identified by Plutchik?
1. Joy versus sadness
2. Acceptance versus disgust
3. Anger versus fear
4. Expectation versus surprise
According to the scheme of opposing emotions (which can be diagrammed to resemble the color solid), the extra dimension that provides nuances of emotion (such as pleasure versus ecstasy) is?
Intensity
What are Superficial facial muscles?
connect to the facial skin and act as sphincters, changing the shape of facial features. Examples are the muscles that move the lips or eyebrows. This category of muscle is controlled by the facial cranial nerve.
What are Deep facial muscles?
2. move skeletal structures, such as the masseter muscle that moves the jaw and which is controlled by the motor branch of the trigeminal cranial nerve.
The superficial facial muscles of the left lower face are controlled by what part of the brain?
motor cortex of the right hemispheres(s)
Chronic selective inhibition of the facial musculature occurs in what kind of patients?
Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia.
Symptoms of Bell's Palsy include...
drooping eyelids and mouth, usually on one side only.
Evolutionary perspective of emotions?
emotions can be thought of as motivational programs that organize behavior in adaptive ways. According to this view, emotions have been shaped through the process of natural selection.
Surprise emerges at what stage?
4 to 6 months
Pleasure emerges at what stage?
0 to 3 months
Self-awareness emerges at what stage?
18 to 24 months
Anger emerges at what stage?
4 to six months
Sadness emerges at what stage?
0 to 3 months
Fearfulness emerges at what stage?
7 to 9 months
Disgust emerges at what stage?
0 to 3 months
the internal feeling of aggression consists of ?
hate, and a desire to inflict harm on another individual.
Decorticate Rage
Removal of the isocortex of dogs
sometimes called sham rage, because the behavior is not directed at particular environmental targets. These findings suggest that rage reactions are generated by subcortical regions of the brain and moderated by cortical regions.
Neuroeconomics
reveals the brain regions active during decision making
A group of brain regions within the limbic system.
Papez circuit
dyscontrol syndrome
A condition consisting of temporal lobe disorders that may underlie some forms of human violence.
individual response stereotypy
The tendency of individuals to show the same response pattern to particular situations throughout their life span.
Nueroeconomics
The study of brain mechanisms at work during economic decision making.
Alarm reaction
The initial response to stress.
stress immunization
The concept that mild stress early in life makes an individual better able to handle stress later in life.
A collection of axons traveling in the midline region of the forebrain.
medial forebrain bundle
A group of nuclei in the medial anterior part of the temporal lobe.
The amygdala
A loosely defined, widespread group of brain nuclei that innervate each other to form a network. These nuclei are implicated in emotions.
limbic system
motor cortex
Mammalian basal ganglia are associated with a variety of functions: motor control, cognition, emotions, and learning
variety of functions
autonomic nervous system
parts of brain
cells in cerebellum
corpus collsum
cranial nerves
synapse
insula
parts of nueron
cingulate cortex
blood supply to brain
spinal nerves
perform a primary role in the processing and memory of emotional reactions, the amygdalae are considered part of the limbic system.[3]
