Document Summary
Lecture 3: chapter 11 emotion and motivation: what moves us. Gain an appreciation of the importance of emotion in human life. Understand the functions and meanings of emotion in three areas of life: the intrapersonal, interpersonal, interpersonal, and social cultural. Give examples of the role and function of emotion in each of the three areas described. Emotions are mental states or feelings associated with our evaluation of our experiences. Emotions are initiated by physiological arousal, expressive behaviour, and mental experiences. Physiological arousal: increase in blood pressure, body temp rises. Expressive behaviour: your facial expression might change, cross your arms. Mental experience: you attribute his action to him being an a-hole.
