How we perceive emotion
How we perceive emotion
Body posture
• The way we hold our bodies when we walk,
stand and sit gives cues to others about our
emotional state.
• It clues them in to how relaxed or tense we
are and how confident or shy we are.
• depending on how close we're standing to
another person, it can also show aggression or
love, dominance or submission.
Speech Patterns
• We may choose our words carefully when
we're angry or expressing happiness.
• Our emotions cause us not only to feel
differently, but also to speak differently
• Our speech patterns also change depending
on our emotional state
• our regular cadence can increase or decrease
in rate, and pitch, tone, volume and our
inflection and even accent may also be
affected.
Gestures
• Gestures take on different meanings in
different cultures.
• gesturing in general is one way humans
communicate emotion to each other
nonverbally.
Facial expressions
• Our facial muscles -- there are 44 of them --
are able to communicate important nonverbal
messages in a split second,
• anger, contempt, disgust, fear, happiness,
sadness and surprise seem to be seven
universal facial expressions that all humans
unconsciously recognize and interpret
Physiological Cues
• our emotions are accompanied by subtle
physiological change
• A subtle flush of the face or increase in heart
rate or body temperature could be a clue to
the emotional state of the person you're
talking to.
THEORIES OF EMOTIONS
Cannon-bard theory of emotion
It states that
• we react to a stimulus and experience the
associated emotion at the same time.
• we feel emotions and experience physiological
reactions such as sweating, trembling and
muscle tension simultaneously.
For example: I see a snake --> I am afraid --> I
begin to tremble.
James-lange theory of emotion
It states that
• emotions occur as a result of physiological
reactions to events.
• proposes that you will interpret your physical
reactions and conclude that you are
frightened.
• For example I am trembling, therefore I am
afraid.
EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
• Emotional intelligence (EI) refers to the ability
to perceive, control and evaluate emotions.
FOUR BRANCHES
• Salovey and Mayer proposed a model that
identified four different factors of emotional
intelligence
• Perceiving Emotions: The first step in
understanding emotions is to accurately
perceive them. In many cases, this might
involve understanding nonverbal signals such
as body language and facial expressions.
• Reasoning With Emotions: The next step
involves using emotions to promote thinking
and cognitive activity. Emotions help prioritize
what we pay attention and react to; we
respond emotionally to things that garner our
attention.
• Understanding Emotions: The emotions that
we perceive can carry a wide variety of
meanings. If someone is expressing angry
emotions, the observer must interpret the
cause of their anger and what it might mean.
• Managing Emotions: The ability to manage
emotions effectively is a key part of emotional
intelligence. Regulating emotions, responding
appropriately and responding to the emotions
of others are all important aspect of
emotional management.
