Study Notes
Conscious Emotion vs. Automatic Affect
- Conscious emotion is a strong, unified feeling experienced at a conscious level.
- Automatic affect is a liking or disliking of something, often occurring outside of conscious awareness.
- Automatic affect is a rapid, initial evaluation of something as good or bad, happening within milliseconds.
- Conscious emotion, in contrast, develops more slowly.
- Both conscious emotion and automatic affect are vital for human experiences and decision-making.
Emotional Arousal
- Emotions involve both mental and physical aspects.
- Emotional states can be induced or triggered by physical events or chemical changes in the body.
- Emotional arousal is typically categorized as good or bad, and it's difficult to convert one type into the other.
Emotional Connections & Relationships
- Positive feelings often result from healthy relationships, while negative emotions frequently stem from damaged relationships.
- Maintaining strong social connections can be crucial for overall well-being and emotional stability.
Emotions Impacting Decisions
- Emotions play a vital role in decision-making, both positively and negatively.
- Emotions can help guide decisions by highlighting good and bad outcomes.
- Strong emotions, particularly negative ones, can skew decision-making and lead to risky or harmful choices.
- The risk-as-feelings hypothesis suggests that people rely on their emotional reactions to assess risk.
Gender and Emotional Expression
- Social norms often pressure men to suppress emotional expression.
- Women tend to be more willing to openly express emotions, potentially leading to the perception of greater female emotionality.
- Men may actually experience emotions as intensely as women, but they may be less likely to acknowledge or express them.
- The difference in emotional expression between genders may be influenced by social expectations rather than inherent differences.
