Explain the theory of emotion (from the chapter readings) that makes the most sense to you.

Answer 1

Hello!

Emotions are unpredictable, it is something we all go through and there are multiple and weird and horrible and confusing and what not kind of emotions, some emotions are easy to forget and some are really hard to forget. In the heat of the moment it makes us do many right and wrong things and it also decides our behaviour based on the emotions we go through at a point or certain time or situation.

I'm going to be taking of James Lange s theory every theory of emotion talks of different perception and reaction so here is what Langes focused on ,here the theory of emotion mainly revolved around Physiological reactions. ill explain it to you with example that way it should help you better imagine you are going to a creek to get some Cray fish and on your way you see a snake coming towards you ,now what happens to your body you will feel chills down your spine and you tremble and all these signs and reactions from your body tell you that you are afraid just like that this theory of emotion intends to day that when you encounter a dangerous situation your body gives you signs and then you decide what can be done about this situation now.

Thankyou, hope this helped
