____ is more observable element of emotions

_____ is more the state of emotion
Feeling
this component of emotion is when we experience changes in HR or BP due to a stimulus
Physiological component
our internal state of feelings is which component of emotion
self-reported cognition
displaying our internal state of feelings/emotion is which component of emotion
distinctive motor behaviour
when we are bias towards something this is an example of what component of emotion
unconscious behaviour
bridge between ____ & _____ along with our _____ can be defined as EMOTION
behavioural response, mental activities and underling tone
In social neuropsychology we seek to understand how ____ mediates ____
Brain edits social interaction
Frontal lobe damage in humans may result in 4 problems
- inappropriate social conduct
- poor emotional expression/interpretation
- personality change
- decision making
Sam has been seen with large emotional outbursts when mad at people and has been known for trying to fight strangers on the street - he likely has damage to his ___
Frontal lobe
The VMPFC plays a role in what 2 things
- decision making
2. inhibiting emotional response
The VMPFC mediates what important emotional structure
the amygdala
If an individual no longer seems fearful to imminent danger, what might be damaged?
Amygdala (kluver-burcy syndrome)
parts of the brain involved in emotions (lymbic circuitry)
Hippocampus, amygdala, cingulate cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus, mid anterior orbit frontal cortex, medial orbit frontal cortex.
The pleasure centre of the brain that is involved in reward accusation to stimuli is also known as what?
mid anterior orbit frontal cortex
this area of the brain monitors and predicts reward value
medial orbit frontal cortex
in fear conditioning, the amygdala knows to produce a response through..
genetics, experience, context (from hippocampus)
this hemisphere is responsible for the automatic component of emotion
RH
This Hem generates feelings
RH
Damage to the RH results in what affect
the flat affect - no emotion
this Hem plays a role in cognitive control of emotion
LH
T/F the LH interprets feelings
True
someone with catastrophic emotional reactions might have damage to which hemisphere
LH
this network of social cognition allows us to detect relevant stimuli and triggers emotional responses
amygdala network
this network of social cognition allows us to think about the internal states of others
mentalizing network
this network of social cognition is involved in attributing intentions of others
empathy network
this netwrok is involved in developing the concept of self
mirror/simulation/action-perception netwrok
these areas of the brain are in the empathy network
ACC and insula
What area of the brain is involved in the amygdala network
VMPFC
neurological condition characterized by the inability of a person to properly convey or interpret emotional prosody
Aprosodia
Aprosodia is caused by lesions where?
RH
RH damage may lead to impaired..
Facial expression interpretation
the LH is more for interpreting emotional behaviour
TRUE
The RH is more involved in the production of emotional behaviour
TRUE
Emotional interpretation is to emotional production as ___ is to _____
LH is to RH
the somatic marker hypothesis involves which brain area
VMPFC
what evidence supports the cognitive emotional reaction model
the amygdalae role in fear conditioning
