Emotions in folk psychology (huis tuin en keuken psychologie)
- You should be rational, not act upon your emotions
- My heart says one thing, but my head says something else
- Emotions come over me, they happen to me
- You need to vent your anger
- Time heals
Emotions: helpful or harmful? Emotions are a signal. Like pain tells you that something
needs to be looked after in your body. Emotions tell you that something meaningful has
happened.
Emotions = communication
The functionalistic view on emotions (Frijda, 1986)
- Concern is at stake
- Changes in action readiness
Primary appraisal
- Defines good/not good
- Quasi automatic
- Focus on event
- Physiological arousal
o Primary function of physiological changes is provision of energy, mobilization
of the organism prepare for action
o Little evidence that specific patterns underlie specific emotions (e.g. heart
rate, blood flow)
Before you react: latency time
Secondary appraisal
- Previous experiences
- Own abilities
- Which strategy
- Different responses possible
- Determines which emotion
