Visual Approach For Emotional Processing

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.

This double dissociation therefore suggests that recognition of faces and common objects is served by different mechanisms that are independent for each other. Although brain cells of face recognition have not been located, some functional models could help us interpret face recognition and prosopagnosia. One of the most influential models was proposed by Bruce and Young (1986). In this model face recognition involves several steps, and three steps more relate to prosopagnosia.

Science released an article entitled “Facial Expressions—Including Fear—May Not Be as Universal as We Thought”, written by Michael Pierce on October 17, 2016. In this article Pierce discusses how 50 years ago it was assumed that facial expressions were universal. However, it has been found that in the present day, this may not be the case. Expressions such as happiness, anger, sadness, fear, disgust, or hunger, were all assumed to be expressed the same way as well as interpreted the same way. A study was conducted in the Trobriand Islands, were Trobrianders were shown as series of photos with facial expressions. They were asked to describe the emotions they interpreted from the photos, the results were intriguing. Pierce (2016) describes how

• Thomas is the protagonist character • He wakes up in elevator shaft • He does not recall of anything about his life (family, friends ..etc.) • Elevator stops moving after what felt like hours but it was most likely thirty minutes

Nivek, presented a normal behavior today, he discussed how he had fun playing outside and was excited he will be able to participate in his school ice-cream party tomorrow. In the activity he expressed his feeling in an approached manner by accepting the fact that he was losing rounds in the game. Modeled appropriate behavior when he displaced competiveness and how he was willing to continue playing until he was able to win the prize that he desired very badly. He showed no signs of anger or frustration but stated how he enjoyed playing the game and wining a prize at the end. Therapist praise Nivek for showing better self- control.

Racism is the main focus of To Kill A Mockingbird. Throughout the story, Harper Lee teaches us about how people are treated based on their race through the different characters. Over time, she shows how most people are racist or desensitized to racism. A great example of this is Scout. Because Scout had been around racism before, she reacted to the trial differently than Dill. Scout even said “Well, Dill, after all he’s just a Negro,”(Lee 226) in regard to Dill being upset over how Mr. Gilmer was treating Tom Robinson during the trial. The trial’s outcome also helped show how people were treated differently based on race. In the case, there was no evidence that Tom had committed the crime he was accused of, but he was still convicted of the

Overly, the model provides coherent explanation of many kind of information about faces and how they relate to each other. It provides evidence about significant differences in processing of familiar and unfamiliar faces. Nonetheless there are limitations. For instance, there is not enough information about processing unfamiliar faces. Burton et al. (1999)

This video used emotional appeal. This video shows emotional appeal because it tells us family and doctors have relied on it because it reduces muscle, back and joint pain. They incorporates family and why you should use it. It’s trying to persuade the people by saying their families will have reduced pain. This commercial persuaded me because it gives me facts about the medicine. It also says that doctors use it,which is trustworthy to me. In the end it says “Relief doesn’t get an better than this,” this line persuaded me the most because it shows that advil is the

In order to have a well balance adult and mature in their life, readers must learn how to recognize what emotions they are make. Besides that, emotion is too abstract for them; they do not know how to experience the emotions and what to do about it. They are on the track to develop their skill, it help them to recognize their own and other people’s emotions. Therefore, we should know that bibliotheraphy is one of Bibliotheraphy is one of the practices that help teacher to encourage the children to talk more. Indirectly they have chance to give an idea and discuss freely. It generates multiple solutions to a problem that had been through by them. Besides, it helps individuals to plan realistic and construct

In everyday life there is a constant evidence of interaction between cognition and emotion. If we see something funny we laugh, if we fear we run or hide, if we are distressed we find it hard to concentrate. However we do not need to present any of the emotions to others, we can regulate them, think about situations and consequences and estimate the outcome. We are able to control our emotions. Ochsner and Gross(2005,p.242) argues that capacity to control emotion is important for human adaptation. The question is to what extent does cognition control emotion?

The aim of the present study was to investigate which hemisphere is specialised for the perception of emotion. It was hypothesised that participants will judge chimeric faces with smile presented in the left visual field as happier more often than chimeric faces with the smile presented in the right visual field. Twenty-six psychology students were asked to judge chimeric faces with one half being a smiling expression and the other half with a neutral expression. The images were presented in their left and right visual field. Over 28 experimental trials the participants were asked to judge which face they thought looked happier. The percentage of chimeric faces judged as happier for both left and right visual field was recorded. The hypothesis was supported: chimeric faces with smile presented in the left visual field as happier more often than chimeric faces with the smile presented in the right visual field.

From the study conducted by Ferri et al., there was a slight statistical significance between amygdala activation to neutral and fearful faces in regards to anxiety levels. On the contrary, they did not find a significant difference. This could be due to the girls being unable to predict the

Chapter 1 explains the work of a Harvard psychologist named William James. William published the article “What is an Emotion?” in a philosophical journal entitled Mind in 1884. His paper is an argument for the primacy and necessity of bodily systems in producing emotional feelings. James-Lange theory states that physiological arousal instigates the experience of emotion. A Harvard physiologist, Walter Cannon, roundly criticized James’ theory, claiming that, according to the Cannon Bard theory, physiological changes follow emotional expression.

Some view emotions as problem-solving abilities allowing us to be ready for action, and thereby not getting lost in thought when action is required (Frijda 1986). Therefore, our emotions would allow problem solving by focusing attention on aspects of a situation that matter most. By doing this, emotions provide the readiness for action. Could this possibly explain our different temperaments during different situations? When presented in an alarming situation, we notice changes that influence our actions. We suddenly redirect our attention to that situation of interest. This has been referred to as the focus of our attention from a summary of appraisals, to arrive

Addiction and Substance Abuse is a complex disease. With this in mind, substance abuse is one of the prime causes of death in the United States. From overdosing to drunk driving, both of these topics dwindle down to lack of self-control and adapting. The evidence shows, the devastating actions of this disease and how it is affecting not only our society but also the health of many struggling individuals.
