29
Q

Panksepp has offered a functional definition of an emotional system. The first four emotion systems that appear shortly after birth are:

A
  1. Seeking
  2. Fear
  3. Rage
  4. Panic
30
Q

According to Panksepp there are 3 special-purpose systems developing at different stages, what are those emotions systems? (following seeking, fear, rage and panic)

A
  1. Lust
  2. Care
  3. Play
31
Q

The … system is a neural system for avoiding pain or injury. It is based in the central and lateral nuclei of the amygdala and responds to stimuli arriving from the thalamus

A

Fear system

32
Q

LeDoux has labelled the two sensory input pathways to the amygdala as…?

A

Low and high road

33
Q

LeDoux: This road (Low or High) is only capable of low spatial resolution of stimuli and can respond to only simple stimuli or gross characteristics of complex stimuli.

A

Low road/ thalamo-amygdala

34
Q

LeDoux: This road is more influenced by social and personal decision-making processes and can reflect culture-specific emotional responses.

A

High road/ thalamo-cortico-amygdala. (note this one also goes trough the cortex)

35
Q

…. neglect is a deficit in body perception and visuospatial processing in individuals who have lesions in their parietal cortex.

A

Parietal

36
Q

What do we call it, when two different stimuli are presented simultaneously in the right and left visual field and patients with right neglect will report not being able to see the stimulus in their left visual field

A

Extinction

37
Q

According to results form Vuilleumeir’s study, something activated the amygdala in patients with right hemisphere parietal damage. Even when the stimuli was on the neglected side. What was it?

A

Fearful faces

38
Q

What do we call the ability to react in behaviourally appropriate ways to specific objects without awareness of the stimuli

A

Blindsight

39
Q

What do people with bilateral amygdala damage fail to look at?

A

The eyes when judging facial expression

40
Q

What recepetors are activated with extinction (the gradual weakening of a conditioned response = Pavlovian)?

A

NMDA receptors in de amygdala
When activation is enhanced, extinction is increased

41
Q

Memories become permanent through a process of protein synthesis, what is this called?

A

Consolidation

42
Q

What kind of coping strategies do people use?

A

Reappraisal (looking more positive at thins) and Reinterpretation

43
Q

Panksepp decribed the SEEKING system with two primary reward pathways. Which are those?

A

Mesolimbic dopamine pathway
Mesocortical dopamine pathway

44
Q

Dopamine neurons respond more to predicted/ unpredicted rewards (reward prediction error theory)

A

Unpredicted

45
Q

What are the 3 components of the reward prediction theory?

A
  1. Liking
  2. Learning
  3. Wanting
46
Q

Natural rewards and drugs of abuse act in differents ways on the ….. dopamine system

A

Mesolimbic

47
Q

Which component theory did James-Lange cam up with?

A

Physiology drives processes

48
Q

Which component theory did Cannon came up with?

A

Cognitive drives processes

49
Q

Which component theory Strack et al. came up with?

A

Expression drives processes

50
Q

Who invented the dimension (kwadranten) model?

A

Russell

51
Q

What does the discrete system model entail and who uses it?

A

Small set of basic emotions, Panksepp

52
Q

Which 3 core components are there within emotion?

A

Physiological arousal, expression, subjective feeling

53
Q

How do we call an emtion that can last for days, weeks or months?

A

Mood

54
Q

How do we call an emotion that lasts a lifetime?

A

Personality trait

55
Q

Who argue that the emotional system is an emergency system that can take action, to quickly select a new operative schedule. Is based on modules (automata) that automatically generates signals and triggers a response.

A

Oatley & Johnson-Laird

56
Q

Emotional responses are determaind by? (subcortical and neocortex)

A
  1. Classical conditioning for stimuli that were thus previously linked to pleasure/pain (subcortical)
  2. Cognitive perception of stimuli in certain context (neocortex)
57
Q

The afferent signals to the amygdala arrive via which four
pathways?

A
  • Olfactory information arrives directly at the amygdala without
    processing in the thalamus.
  • Visceral information from the hypothalamus
  • Affect-relevant information also arrives
    from the hypothalamus, thalamus, and brainstem as well as the
    orbital cortex and anterior cingulate cortex via the ventral
    pathway.
  • Sensory information arrives directly from temporal
    lobe structures
58
Q

What did researcher concluded in affective blindsight (ability of such patients to respond correctly to visual emotional expressions presented to their blind fields) studies?

A

That recognition of fear is mandatory and independent of awareness. So fearful faces can be processed without awareness
despite the damage.

59
Q

Which five cognition-emotion interactions that depend on the amygdala and its associated areas have been identified?

A

(1) implicit emotional learning and memory; (2) emotional modulation of memory; (3) emotional influences on perception and attention; (4) emotion and social behavior; (5) emotion
inhibition and regulation

60
Q

What do we call a behavior conditioning method that presents the stimuli in a reverse order, that is, the unconditioned stimulus (US) occurs before the neutral stimulus (NS)

A

Reverse conditioning

61
Q

Memories become permanent through a process of protein synthesis called?

A

Consolidation

62
Q

What produces more dopamine? The anticipation or de receiving of the reward?

A

The anticipation of reward

63
Q

The hedonic feeling of (liking/ wanting/ learning) ’ is dissociable from the dopamine system

A

Liking - Likeability appears to depend on a separate system involving the shell of the nucleus accumbens

64
Q

Which drug inhibits reuptake and which drug increases dopamine release?

A

Cocaine inhibits reuptake en amphetamine increases release

65
Q

What are the 3 components of expectancy theory (in between the stages effort, performance, outcome, motivation)?
