Introduction to Human Emotions
This series named "
Emotions" will look in to different theories that explain emotion, its physiology, affects and its association with other aspects of mind processes.
I would make sure it is interesting to read from beginning till end. Any comments and suggestions are welcomed.
So what are emotions?
The
dictionary defines emotion as:
A mental state, that arises spontaneously rather than through conscious effort and is often accompanied by physiological changes.
Classification Of Emotions:
- 'Cognitive' versus 'non-cognitive' emotions
- Instinctual emotions (from the amygdala), versus cognitive emotions (from the prefrontal cortex).
- Basic versus complex
- Categorization based on duration: Some emotions occur over a period of seconds (e.g. surprise), whereas others can last years (e.g. love)

My wife and i were really more than happy when Emmanuel could finish up his research from the ideas he discovered while using the weblog. It’s not at all simplistic to simply be making a gift of guides that the others have been making money from. And we figure out we have got the writer to appreciate for that. The explanations you’ve made, the straightforward web site menu, the relationships you can give support to foster – it is many superb, and it’s making our son and us recognize that the idea is fun, which is certainly quite vital. Thank you for everything!
