The Cannon-Bard and James-Lange theories – which comes first, action or feelings Cannon-Bard theory – suggests that various emotion provoking events induce simultaneously, the subjective experiences we label as emotions and the physiological reactions that accompany them. James-Lange theory – suggests that subjective emotional experiences are actually the result of physiological changes within our bodies
Emotion provoking events produce increased arousal. In response to these feelings we then search the external environment in order to identify the causes behind them. The factors we then select play a key role in determining the label we place on our arousal and so in determining the emotions we experience
Discovery of appraisals Two-factor theory of emotions – emotions are the result of a combination of an initial state of unexplained arousal & cognitive appraisal for that arousal – mixed support Misattribution of arousal – physiological arousal can be erroneously attributed to subsequent event
Dimensional appraisal theories – identify a range of appraisal dimensions thought sufficient for differences among emotions (e.g. desirability of event & whether it occurs)
