1 Physiology of Emotions

2 Bellringer: Damen’s brain could not sense his heart pounding or stomach churning, according to the J-L and the C-B theory, how would this effect his emotion?

3 Evaluate the video: If someone’s body were to become aroused because of the video, explain how the sympathetic system would effect your heart, muscles, liver, breathing, skin, and digestion? How would the parasympathetic system effect your body’s functions? Sympathetic (stress) Sympathetic (stress) rate increases rate increases Muscles become tense Muscles become tense Breathing rate increases Breathing rate increases Digestion slows Digestion slows Skin perspires Skin perspires Parasympathetic (relieves stress) Parasympathetic (relieves stress)

4 Michael is swimming in from of thousands of people. Will his performance be the best at a high arousal or low arousal? How does this relate to social facilitation? Well learned/easy task+ high arousal=peak performance Well learned/easy task+ high arousal=peak performance Difficult task + high arousal= decreased performance Difficult task + high arousal= decreased performance Difficult task +low arousal= increased performance Difficult task +low arousal= increased performance

5 What happens to my body when I experience different emotions? Similar Autonomic responses for emotions (increase heart rate), but emotions have minor physiological differences. Similar Autonomic responses for emotions (increase heart rate), but emotions have minor physiological differences. Increase temp (rage) Increase temp (rage) Negative emotions (more activity in right hemisphere) Negative emotions (more activity in right hemisphere) Positive emotions (left hemisphere) Positive emotions (left hemisphere) More activity in left frontal lobes= happier More activity in left frontal lobes= happier Are left brained people more happy? Are left brained people more happy?

6 Polygraph Tests: measures the physiological response that accompany emotions to answers on questions How well the test works relies on whether liars become anxious, and the test detects arousal. How well the test works relies on whether liars become anxious, and the test detects arousal. Problems with this test? Problems with this test? Some questions may cause anxiousness (upsetting question may cause one to feel anxious=may cause people to think hes guilty) Some questions may cause anxiousness (upsetting question may cause one to feel anxious=may cause people to think hes guilty)
