Theories of Emotions
Different theories have been put forward by various psychologists and physiologists to explain basically about the emotion and to explain the number of events occurring during emotions. The theories of emotions include.
James-Lange theory,
Cannon-Bard theory,
Schachter-Singer theory,
Opponent-process theory,
Lazarus’s cognitive theory,
Arousal theory and
Social theories of emotions.
The James-Lange theory contends that the emotion provoking stimuli induce physiological reactions and these form the basis for subjective cognitive states called as emotions.
The Cannon-Bard theory of emotion suggests that emotion provoking events simultaneously elicit physiological reactions and the subjective cognitive states are labeled as emotions.
Schachter-Singer theory suggests that when we are aroused by emotion
provoking stimuli, we search the external environment for the cause of our feelings of arousal. The causes we select then determine the emotions we experience.
According to opponent process theory, strong emotional reactions are followed by opposite emotional reactions.
