self-perception theory - ANSWER: The theory that when our attitudes and feelings are uncertain or
ambiguous, we infer these states by observing our behavior and the
situation in which it occurs

Two-Factor Theory of Emotion - ANSWER: The idea that emotional
experience is the result of a
two-step self-perception process
in which people first experience
physiological arousal and then
seek an appropriate explanation
for it

Schachter and Singer (1962) - ANSWER: it shows that emotions can be the result of a self perception
process: People look for the most plausible explanation for their arousal. Sometimes the most
plausible explanation is not the right one, and so people end up experiencing a mistaken emotion. The
people who became angry or euphoric in the Schachter and Singer (1962) study did so because they
felt aroused and thought this
arousal was due to the obnoxious questionnaire or to the infectious, happy-go-lucky behavior of the
accomplice. The real cause of their arousal, the epinephrine, was hidden from them, so they relied on
situational cues to explain their behavior

misattribution of arousal - ANSWER: The process whereby people make mistaken inferences about
what
is causing them to feel the way they do

comparing ourselves to other people
