Compare and contrast the James-Lange, Cannon-Bard, and Schachter-Singer theories of emotion.?
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER:
The James-Lange is a self-observation theory of emotion. When stimuli are perceived, they evoke immediate automatic peripheral responses. These physical responses can include actions such as running in response to a fearful stimulus. After the automatic responses occur, people feel an emotion because they observe their physiological responses.
The Cannon-Bard theory proposes that direct central experience is responsible for emotions. The thalamus originates an emotion. A person perceives a stimulus and interprets it through the thalamus. The thalamus sends simultaneous signals to the cortex, which causes the emotion to become conscious, and to the autonomic nervous system, which produces a physiological response.
The Schachter-Singer theory proposes that emotions are based on the attribution of arousal. First, a person perceives a stimulus and identifies its nature. Then visceral responses occur, which the person identifies as some emotion. In other words, people attribute their physiological responses to some cause that makes sense, given the situation they are in.?
