Emotions are a special kind of mental processes or human states that manifest themselves in the experience of any significant situations (joy, fear, pleasure), phenomena and events during life. Emotions act as the main regulators of mental life and in the process of almost any human activity. Emotions arose in the process of evolution: with their help, animals can evaluate the biological significance of the phenomena of the surrounding world and the internal state of the organism.
There are different kinds of emotions. The tone of sensations (reactions accompanying the taste, pain, auditory and other sensations) is the simplest form of emotion. They can be positive - to induce a person or an animal to re-experience positive - and negative …show more content…
When an affect occurs, all other psychic reactions are inhibited. Usually the state of affect occurs when a person is critically or in a difficult position. Affect imposes a special type of "emergency behaviour", fixed by evolutionary means: flight, attack, etc. For example when you fail a test and you get so mad that you can´t control yourself.
Actually, emotions are a special kind. They can arise both in real and imaginary terms, that is, not only with real events, but also with representable objects. Usually they do not have any external expressions. Emotions are tied to some situations and the emergence of different human activities.
An important feature of emotions is that they can be generalized and transmitted. Thanks to the products of culture, a common emotional language is formed, a common experience of emotional experiences, which is much broader and more diverse than the individual's individual experience. Feelings are the highest stage of emotions, the result of their generalization. They are super-situational and can even sometimes manage simpler forms of emotion (for example, pride in the success of a loved …show more content…
Like emotions effect our communications with others positively they also have a bad affect. For example you´re a scientist and you put a lot of effort and time on a research. When you present your research to other scientists you will not be able to accept the negative feedback because you would be so emotionally attached to your work so you would stop yourself from gaining knowledge and improving your research. In this way emotions would prevent you from gaining knowledge.
We can make bad decisions and manipulate the reality to satisfy our emotions states for example a smoker know that smoking is bad but he feels good when he smokes so he decides the reality and the facts and convince himself that it might not be true. So you would continue doing the bad thing without thinking of the consequences.
Out of my own experience I can tell that when I have a math test I immediately consider skipping the test because I’m bad at mathematics and I wouldn’t want to risk getting a bad grade or even failing since that would make me feel very bad. But when it comes to languages like Russian or Swedish tests I feel very confident because I like it and I feel good about it.
