Emotional Theory

Let's say you have walked through the woods and saw a bear that looks normally. This encounter avoids your sunshine, you started running for your loving life. Are you running for fear or are you afraid of running? This example and question comes from a study by William James, one of the first psychologists who presented a formal answer to the question of how the auto-reply function is related to emotional experience. James think you are afraid because you ran. He said your running and other physiological reactions come directly from the bear 's view.

The above emotional theory of Panksepp (5, 114) can be re-understood as primary emotion theory. In his view, the state of the central phenomenon of emotional consciousness such as fear is a congenital experience that human and other mammals generate from evolutionarily preserved subcortical circuits. These states are described as "hidden programs (potentially unconscious possibilities)", "emotion - perception and emotional state" (115, 116). Although they are "lack of introspective consciousness", they gave them "a special emotion". Then, through cognitive processing of the cortical circuit (perhaps GNC), you can access and rethink that state. There is amazing similarity between the theory of Panksepp and the Block distinction between phenomena and access consciousness.

Emotions and emotions are the most important events in our lives, but the relationship between emotional theory in cognitive science and new conscious theory is relatively small. In this paper, we challenge the traditional view that emotions are essentially programmed in subcortical circuits, suggesting that emotions are higher order states instantiated in cortical circuits. We believe that the difference between emotional and non emotional experiences lies in the type of input processed by the cortical network, not the cortex or other cortex. Higher order theory provides high order theoretical correction, which is the main consciousness theory which interprets self recognition and then allows to extend the model to explain conscious emotional experience.

The Cannon bar's emotional theory, also known as Taramic's emotional theory, is the physiological interpretation of emotions by Walter Cannon and Philip Bird. According to Cannonbird theory, we feel emotion, experience physiological responses such as perspiration, tremor, muscle tension. For example, suppose you are entering a car through a dark parking lot. You hear the footsteps behind you, and when you walk toward your car you will find a shadowy appearance slowly following you. According to the emotional theory of Cannonbird, you will experience both fear and physical response. You start to feel afraid, and your heart begins to compete. You rush into the car, lock the door behind you, and hurry home from the parking lot.
