The Psychobiology of Emotions

The role of biological system other than auditory air-conduction in the emergence of the hypersonic effect

“…It is reasonable to consider, therefore, that the hypersonic effect detected by the increase in the power of the alpha-EEG in the present study reflects the activation of the deep-lying brain structure, including the brainstem and thalamus. These brain areas, containing distinct neuronal groups that are the major source of the monoaminergic projections to various parts of the brain (Role and Kelly, 1991), introduce approaching behaviors and are considered to be intimately connected with registering pleasurable sensations (Thompson, 1988).…”

Insult, aggression, and the southern culture of honor: An "experimental ethnography."

“…To measure how upset or stressed the participant became, we examined the cortisol level of the participant before and after the bump. Cortisol is a hormone associated with high levels of stress, anxiety, and arousal in humans and in animals (Booth, Shelley, Mazur, Tharp, & Kittok, 1989; Dabbs & Hooper, 1990; Kirschbaum, Bartussek, & Strasburger, 1992; Leshner, 1983; Popp & Baum, 1989; Thompson, 1988). If southerners are more upset by the acute stress of the insult, they should show a rise in cortisol levels compared with control participants.…”

Emotions and new venture judgment in China

“…Different emotions can be clearly and consistently discerned in facial expressions, across age groups and cultures-even those separated by thousands of miles and centuries of development (Ekman et al, 1969;Izard & Ellis, 1971;Tomkins & McCarter, 1964). Emotions also differ in physiological states (Thompson, 1988), adaptive behavior (Plutchik, 1980), action tendencies (Frijda, 1986), and motivation (Roseman, 1984). Based on the mechanism of emotion occurrence, cognitive appraisal theory of emotion (Ellsworth, 1991;Lazarus & Smith, 1988;Parkinson & Manstead, 1992;Scherer, 1988) posits that the activation of emotion depends on the way in which appraisal is used to interpret the situation.…”
