The Roles Of The Human System Of Emotions

Although many books have been written about communication and connection in relationships, there has been a book that addresses precisely this wonderful process as has James C. Petersen in his book: Why Don’t We Listen Better? And it is precisely the way in which the parts he divided the book that takes the reader to a better understanding of what the personal relationships connections through communications are concerned.

During present day, some of our main forms of entertainment would be attending movies, listening to music, or browsing the internet. However, during the Elizabethan era, they did not have the luxury of electricity and as a result they turn to other sources for entertainment. For this, plays are a prominent source to amuse people and bring families together. In fact, plays put on previously are still well known presently, specifically those that are written by the playwright “Shakespeare”. Formerly, theatres that actors preformed on were soiled and rambunctious (shakespeareinamericancommunities). Nonetheless, plays generated a lot of money and attracted people from different statuses to get together (elizabethan-era).

Emotions play a very important role in decision making. When making any decision, my first question to myself is, "what would make me feel good or lead to my happiness?" If I don't use that thought process, and for example act out of anger or vengeance, my decisions are never ideal.

Example exam approach: In this answer I will discuss the interaction of cognitive and biological factors with reference to three theories.

Emotions are different psychological responses that every individual experiences when they face life situations. Our appraisal mechanisms is automatic, that lets us react automatically to life situations we encounter and not involve conscious reasoning. In the “What is Meant by Calling Emotions Basic,” focuses on how emotions are adaptations to our surroundings and how our emotions include facial, vocal, and behavior changes that occur in a few seconds, which are involuntary. The second article “Feelings: What Are They & How Does the Brain Make Them?,” focuses on human emotions as mental states which people react to situations effectively in order to increase their survival. For example, when seeing a snake we react fast and not think about

Our emotional response to the world around us is a fundamental key to the way it affects our lives. Intelligent individuals, or even those that are aware of their emotional response to the conditions around them, can use these skills to manipulate and control their emotions, which is a concept common in both real world situations and literature.

The purpose of life, to some degree, is to seek happiness and to seek out other people to achieve that happiness. Sigmund Freud developed this idea, which is known as the pleasure principle, claiming to explain that the human consciousness and subconsciousness revolve around this idea. If someone is isolated, then they will try to alleviate that suffering in one way or another. Human emotion is reduced to extremely simple terms, unlike what they truly are, which is extremely complex. The idea of reducing humans to such a simple understanding seems unfair, but it carries a sense of truth to it. Every person on Earth is seeking for pleasure, and it carries truth because no person appreciates the feeling of unpleasantness. Isolation is a defense method against the world to seek pleasure and to avoid unpleasant feelings in life. Freud believes that everyone attempts to get away from things that cause us pain and suffering and that everyone feels suffering as a result of society, but the way people attempt to alleviate this suffering defines us as a person.

The goal of the experiment conducted by Renner, Schwarz, Peters, and Huibers (2014) was to determine the effects of emotions in healthy individuals with a best possible self (BPS) writing and imagery exercise following a negative mood induction. The study included a total of 40 participants from Maastricht University, thirty-two women and 8 men. Initially, participants were assigned to either the experimental or control group. In the experimental group, subjects wrote about their best possible self for fifteen minutes and engaged in a mental imagery task for five minutes to reflect on what they had written in order to induce positive emotions. In the control group, subjects instead wrote about their typical day for the

When your friend tells you you’re fat why do you feel sad that they would say that? When your significant other buys you a gift, gives you a hug and kiss, or compliments you, why do you feel happy and excited? Believe it or not, there are reasons for the way we feel--emotions. Everyone loves, hates, gets angry, and feels happy. Although we all feel these things, none of us really understand why and where these emotions come from. Some may say love and happiness come from “the good” in the world, and hate and anger are sins caused by the devil. With years of studying human emotions and analyzing the reasons why we feel these emotions, a scientific explanation for this wonderment has been proposed.

Understanding individual Emotions and Moods in my career field is a crucial part of ensuring mission success. As defined by Robins and Judge, “Emotions are intense feeling that are directed at someone or something. Moods are feelings that tend to be less intense than emotions and that lack a contextual stimulus.” ( Robins & Judge, 2009). Emotions have the potential to shape an employee’s mood. From there, a mood can affect a lot in a person’s life from work productivity, job satisfaction, personal and family life (Carlson, Kacmar, Zivuska, Feguson, & Whitten, 2011). Moods have a high negative affect, a high positive affect, a low positive affect or a low negative affect (Robbins & Judge, 2009). Evolutionary Psychology and Affect Events theory are two important concepts to fully understand how important Emotions and Moods are, especially in my personal career field as a military policewoman.

Just like mortals, Gods feels emotions as well but they usually do not express them as much as mortals do. They can feel anger, sadness, fear, happiness and love. However they do not express their emotions, for it is seen as a weakness. Many Gods say that is is complicated, and they never want to answer the questions of the younger gods. This lead to many of the younger ones misunderstanding why they see emotions as a weakness. They did not know that these emotions may have horrible consequences. For example, the young moon goddess Amaris made a terrible mistake when she showed emotions for a beast.

Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, allegorical for McCarthyism, is a serious routine issue the playwright wishes to alert viewers of. Both sharing parallels of accusing innocent people of timely profane issues, Miller created this Puritan era stage performance with emphasis of each individual’s reputation to engage the audience to act on the moral of the performance. Arguably, the text explores how people’s reputation can be altered by those in power taking advantage of the moment, by the relationships they share with negative influences and the supremacy of laws clashing with a character’s morality.

When we consider the sensations and perceptions of our mind we find that there are a lot of connections. The pathways that connect our eyes, our nose, and our ears to our brain are very complicated. Therefor I have explained them to you in the following paragraphs. We then moved on to advertisements and how they connect to our sensations.

2. The nature and operation of mood and emotion can be explained through different approaches. First, the evolutionary approach based on Charles Darwin 's evolution of the species. It examines personality through the process of natural selection. For instance, sexual jealousy such as anger, rage and aggressive behavior increases reproductive success and is therefore, more present among species. Additionally, the book argues that cultural aspects also play an important role in the reflection of mood and emotion. That is, in western civilizations, individualism is part of all peoples’ daily lives and therefore creates individual’s emotions different. Specifically, Ruth Benedict touches upon the relationship between culture and personality. She studied the differences between areas in Mexico, and found that one culture had more generalized love for excess whereas the other people were more mistrusting of such behavior. That explains how different cultures might have different preferences and emotions for different ideologies. Furthermore, personality can be also analyzed through the biological level. That is, through the behavioral inhibition system, which causes withdraw of certain stimuli, or the behavioral activation system which is associated with risk- taking actions. Richard Lazarus states through the cognitive Meditational Model of Emotion that particular situations and feelings can activate categories or constructs from memory and are then used to interpret reality
