Compare and contrast the James-Lange view of emotion with the Cannon-Bard view of emotion

What will be an ideal response?


ANSWER:

In short, emotion is a physiological response to some stimulus. Cannon (and later Bard) proposed that emotion does not originate in the body; rather, it originates in the brain.
