` Emotion is a Ǯmovedǯ or Ǯstirred upǯ state of
an organism. It is a stirred-up state of feeling,
that is the way it appears to the individual
himself. It is a disturbed muscular and
glandular activity, that is the way it appears
to an external observer.( Woodworth)
` Emotion is a complex affective experience
that one undergoes during an instinctive
excitement. For example, when a child
perceives a bull coming towards him
(cognition) he experiences an affective
experience in the form of the arousal of
accompanied emotion of fear consequently
tries to run away ( conative). (üc dougall)
` ccording to üc Dougall, each emotion is the
product of some instinctive behavior ( inborn
tendency to behave in a certain manner or
natural ability). He discovered 14 instincts-
escape-fear; pugnacity-anger; laughter-
amusement; acquisition-feeling of
ownership, etc.
` *hus emotions are a sort of feelings or
affective experiences which are characterized
by some physiological changes that generally
lead them to perform some or the other types
of behavioural acts.
’
r
cteristics of Emotions

` Emotional experiences are associated with

some instincts- aroused under the influence
of instincts.
` Product of perception Ȃ perception of proper
stimulus ( object or situation) is needed to
start an emotional experience, accompained
with the body ( favourable/unfavourable)
x

` Feeling are the core of emotions-feelings and

emotion- affective experiences ( differ in
degree of intensity). When feelings are so
strong as to disturb the mind and excite an
individual to act immediately, they turn into
emotions. Feeling behaviour is converted into
acting behaviour, it is called emotional
behaviour.
` Emotions bring physical and physiological
changes- reddening of eyes, cheeks, choking
of voice, etc; change in circulation of blood,
functioning of glands, etc.
` Specific and distinguishable- can be detected
` Prevalent in every individual
` Present at all stages of development
` Same emotion can be aroused through no. of
different stimuli
` Emotions arise abrupty, but subside slowly.
Emotions persist and leave behind an
emotional mood.
` Emotions have a quality of displacement.
( *ransfer of emotion from one situation to
the other)
` One emotion give birth to no. of other
emotions. E.g. anger-pugnacity, disgust,etc.
` mve correlation between intelligence and
emotions-under emotional experience,
reasoning and thinking powers decrease.
` Whether an Emotion will be helpful or
harmful depends upon following factors-
` Frequency and intensity of emotional
experience
` Situation, occasion and nature of stimulus
which arouses the emotion
` Kind of emotional experience
inds of Emotions

` *wo kinds of emotions-

` Positive-pleasant emotions like affection,
happiness, etc.
` Negative-unpleasant emotions-fear, anger,
jealousy, etc.
` Emotions with too much of intensity and
frequency, whether positive or negative bring
harmful effects. Our behaviour is totally
controlled by and directed by emotions.
