Visual Approach For Emotional Processing

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

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.

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

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.

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.

O’Toole and Haxby’s model did not account for the extent to which the various face selective regions in the human brain classify different facial expressions. Zhang et al., 2016 used fMRI to determine how well face selective brain regions are able to decode different categories of

to play a relevant role [9,10]. Thus, studies using morphed images of facial affect have

According to sources, after performing studies at the University of Sussex, Jennifer Wathan and Karen McComb made a breakthrough--readable horses. Frankly, multitudes of animals communicate to each other; more than none. Adversely, humans do not know and understand all of a horse’s movements that relate to their decision making process. Fortunately, these two university researchers have an answer: Use visual cues to read a horse's mood. Jennifer Wathan assessed that being decisive to cognition and emotion is a fundamental skill; even for animals. In relation to horses, their ears and eyes tell the tale.

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

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.

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.

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?

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
