“…Some emotions (i.e., happiness, sadness, fear, disgust, surprise, and anger) have frequently been described and supported in the research as innate, evolutionarily prewired, basic, and universal (Damasio, 1994;Ekman, 1992a;Johnson-Laird & Oatley, 1992;McNaughton, 1989;Thompson, 1988).…”

“…Feelings are another factor in defining emotion. Feelings are sometimes referred to as emotion (LeDoux, 1994;Thompson, 1988) or physiological activity relating to emotion, rather than emotion per se (Damasio 1994;Thompson, 1988). Given the current information about emotion, it is reasonable to consider that FEE are probably more accurately conceptualized as categorical, at least a few of which are primary (predispositional) and universal in nature (i.e., sad, angry, happy, surprise, disgust, and fear) and have associated feelings.…”

“…Theories of emotion differ regarding whether emotional evaluation of events is considered to be automatic, preceding conscious evaluation, or if conscious evaluation is a necessary antecedent of emotion (Damasio, 1994;Ekman, 1992a;Halgren, 1992;LeDoux, 1993a;Johnson-Laird & Oately, 1992;Thompson, 1988). Current neuroscientific research has found no compelling evidence that emotion and cognition are necessarily opposed; rather, they are likely juxtaposed or take place synchronously.…”

“…At least three emotions are noticeable in the neonate (disgust, happiness, interest) with others noticeable within the first year of life (Shaffer, 1996;Thompson, 1988) as the facial muscle groups become more refined and coordinated (Brown, 1993). By the end o f the first 3 years of life, a child has come to possess an elaborate and complex emotional system, with the majority o f adult emotions having emerged and developed.…”

“…For example, emotion plays a significant role in communication in the social constructs of society and acts as a signal o f one's internal state and functioning, configuring mental resources and making ready for certain kinds of action (Damasio, 1994;Hess, Blairy, & Kleck, 1997;Singh et al, 1998;Thompson, 1988).…”

Given the significance of emotion within the social context, it is important to understand how its diverse functions are mediated and coordinated effectively in facial expressions of emotion.Moreover, it is important to understand how the adequacy of perception o f facial expressions of emotion might contribute to aberrant behaviour, such as demonstrated by antisocial youth.

The relationship between social status and telemetrically recorded heart rate (HR) was studied among 29 adult male cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) which had been maintained in six social groups (n = four or five) for 26 months. The membership of each group was reorganized periodically (20 times in 26 months) by shifting monkeys from group to group in a way that maximized each animal's exposure to social strangers. The social behavior of all animals was monitored, via focal sampling, twice per week; social status was based on the outcome of agonistic encounters and was determined every 2 weeks. For four nights on each of two occasions (months 13 and 25 of the experiment), the HRs of all animals were sampled 12 times per hour, 30 seconds per sample between 1800 h and 0900 h. A more limited nocturnal HR sampling was performed during the first month of the experiment. The behavioral observations revealed that, despite the repeated social reorganization, some monkeys were habitually dominant in their groups while others were consistently subordinate. Further, those monkeys falling above the median in dominance status had significantly lower HRs than their subordinate counterparts (104 vs. 117 beats per minute; P = 0.01). The effect was observed irrespective of the month in which observations were made, and was corroborated by more limited observations made at the beginning of the experiment. Finally, those few monkeys which rose or fell in rank were characterized by inverse changes in HR, supporting the hypothesis that behavioral factors influence HR (rather than visa versa).
