EMOTION is an affective stages of feelings accompanied by physiological changes that often influence  behavior. M
ost researchers agree that emotions can be classified along PLEASANTNESS and AROUSAL dimensions, although other dimensions such as control, anticipated effort  and attention may also seperate groups of emotion.(SMITH and ELLSWORTH,1987)                                    Taken together we can view emotion as a combination of affect and arousal that influence behavior.EMOTIONS have different theory, one of those theory is                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        


JAMES-LANGE THEORY;

According to this theory emotion is the result of perceiving arousal and behavior"Common sense that we lose our fortune are sorry and weep"..........(MY) hypothesis is that we feel sorry because we cry,angry because we strike,afraid because we tremble."(James 1890) 













     






















CANNON -BARD THEORY ;States that event activate thalamus which in turn leads to simultaneous arousal of organs and experience of emotion.





                  






 SCHACHTER and SINGER THEORY;  unexplained arousal leads people to search their environment to find the label for arousal.The interpretation of arousal leads to a specific emotion.                                                                                                                                                  









  APPRAISAL THEORY;States that automatic evaluation of a situation as threatening or nonthreatening .APPRAISAL influences both arousal(emotion) and behavior(response).

PRACTICAL APPLICATION IN REAL 
LIFE:                                                       IF you were walking  and  you encounter a snake in your backyard your sympathetic nervous system would initiates physiological arousal making your heart rate and breathing rate increases accordingly, you would experience a feeling of fear only after physiological arousal had taken place.                                                                       www.boundless.com             
                                                                                                                                           IF  you were sitting in a bench in your school and suddenly you saw your BOY CRUSH approaching  and greeted  you with his very cute smile,Your HEART start racing, it is because of an adrenaline gland rush.BUT HOW IT WORKS? The brain send signal to adrenal gland which secretes hormones such as adrenaline, epinephrine and non epinephrine.They flow through the blood and cause the heart to beat faster and stronger.
