  • What We Mean When We Talk About Suffering—And Why Eric Cassell Should Not Have the Last Word
    What We Mean When We Talk About Suffering—and Why Eric Cassell Should Not Have the Last Word Tyler Tate, Robert Pearlman Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, Volume 62, Number 1, Winter 2019, pp. 95-110 (Article) Published by Johns Hopkins University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/722412 Access provided at 26 Apr 2019 00:52 GMT from University of Washington @ Seattle What We Mean When We Talk About Suffering—and Why Eric Cassell Should Not Have the Last Word Tyler Tate* and Robert Pearlman† ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the phenomenon of suffering and its relation- ship to medical practice by focusing on the paradigmatic work of Eric Cassell. First, it explains Cassell’s influential model of suffering. Second, it surveys various critiques of Cassell. Next it outlines the authors’ concerns with Cassell’s model: it is aggressive, obscure, and fails to capture important features of the suffering experience. Finally, the authors propose a conceptual framework to help clarify the distinctive nature of sub- jective patient suffering. This framework contains two necessary conditions: (1) a loss of a person’s sense of self, and (2) a negative affective experience. The authors suggest how this framework can be used in the medical encounter to promote clinician-patient communication and the relief of suffering. *Center for Ethics in Health Care and School of Medicine, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland. †National Center for Ethics in Health Care, Washington, DC, and School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle.

  • About Emotions There Are 8 Primary Emotions. You Are Born with These
    About Emotions There are 8 primary emotions. You are born with these emotions wired into your brain. That wiring causes your body to react in certain ways and for you to have certain urges when the emotion arises. Here is a list of primary emotions: Eight Primary Emotions Anger: fury, outrage, wrath, irritability, hostility, resentment and violence. Sadness: grief, sorrow, gloom, melancholy, despair, loneliness, and depression. Fear: anxiety, apprehension, nervousness, dread, fright, and panic. Joy: enjoyment, happiness, relief, bliss, delight, pride, thrill, and ecstasy. Interest: acceptance, friendliness, trust, kindness, affection, love, and devotion. Surprise: shock, astonishment, amazement, astound, and wonder. Disgust: contempt, disdain, scorn, aversion, distaste, and revulsion. Shame: guilt, embarrassment, chagrin, remorse, regret, and contrition. All other emotions are made up by combining these basic 8 emotions. Sometimes we have secondary emotions, an emotional reaction to an emotion. We learn these. Some examples of these are: o Feeling shame when you get angry. o Feeling angry when you have a shame response (e.g., hurt feelings). o Feeling fear when you get angry (maybe you’ve been punished for anger). There are many more. These are NOT wired into our bodies and brains, but are learned from our families, our culture, and others. When you have a secondary emotion, the key is to figure out what the primary emotion, the feeling at the root of your reaction is, so that you can take an action that is most helpful. .

  • Emotion Classification Using Physiological Signals
    Emotion Classification Using Physiological Signals Byoung-Jun Park1, Eun-Hye Jang1, Myoung Ae Chung1, Sang-Hyeob Kim1*, Jin Hun Sohn2* 1IT Convergence Technology Research Laboratory, Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute, Daejeon, 305-700 2Department of Psychology/Brain Research Institute, Chungnam National University, Daejeon, 305-765 ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study is to discriminate negative emotions, such as sadness, fear, surprise, and stress using physiological signals. Background: Recently, the main topic of emotion classification research is to recognize human’s feeling or emotion using various physiological signals. It is one of the core processes to implement emotional intelligence in human computer interaction (HCI) research. Method: Electrodermal activity (EDA), electrocardiogram (ECG), skin temperature (SKT), and photoplethysmography (PPG) are recorded and analyzed as physiological signals. And emotional stimuli are audio-visual film clips which have examined for their appropriateness and effectiveness through preliminary experiment. For classification of negative emotions, five machine learning algorithms, i.e., LDF, CART, SOM, and Naïve Bayes are used. Results: Result of emotion classification shows that an accuracy of emotion classification by CART (84.0%) was the highest and by LDA (50.7%) was the lowest. SOM showed emotion classification accuracy of 51.2% and Naïve Bayes was 76.2%. Conclusion: We could identify that CART was the optimal emotion classification algorithm for classifying 4 negative emotions (sadness, fear, surprise, and stress). Application: This result can be helpful to provide the basis for the emotion recognition technique in HCI.

They consist of conscious mental reactions towards objects or situations and are associated with various physiological, behavioral, and cognitive changes. In this paper, we propose a comparative analysis between different machine learning and deep learning techniques, with and without feature selection, for binarily classifying the six basic emotions, namely anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, and surprise, into two symmetrical categorical classes (emotion and no emotion), using the physiological recordings and subjective ratings of valence, arousal, and dominance from the DEAP (Dataset for Emotion Analysis using EEG, Physiological and Video Signals) database. The results showed that the maximum classification accuracies for each emotion were: anger: 98.02%, joy:100%, surprise: 96%, disgust: 95%, fear: 90.75%, and sadness: 90.08%. In the case of four emotions (anger, disgust, fear, and sadness), the classification accuracies were higher without feature selection.

  • On Emotion Specificity in Decision Making
    Judgment and Decision Making, Vol. 3, No. 1, January 2008, pp. 18–27. On emotion specificity in decision making: Why feeling is for doing Marcel Zeelenberg∗1, Rob M. A. Nelissen1, Seger M. Breugelmans2, & Rik Pieters3 1 Department of Social Psychology and TIBER, Tilburg University 2 Department of Developmental, Clinical and Cross-cultural Psychology, Tilburg University 3 Department of Marketing and TIBER, Tilburg University Abstract We present a motivational account of the impact of emotion on decision making, termed the feeling-is-for-doing approach. We first describe the psychology of emotion and argue for a need to be specific when studying emotion’s impact on decision making. Next we describe what our approach entails and how it relates emotion, via motivation to behavior. Then we offer two illustrations of our own research that provide support for two important elements in our reasoning. We end with specifying four criteria that we consider to be important when studying how feeling guides our everyday doing. Keywords: emotion, decision making, motivation, action. 1 Introduction 1988).

  • The Thinking-Feeling Connection
    Back from the Back from the Bluez Module 3 The Thinking-Feeling Connection The Thinking-Feeling Connection 2 Making the Connection 4 Module Summary 6 About the Modules 7 Centre for Clinical Module 3: The Thinking-Feeling Connection Page 1 nterventions •Psychotherapy•ReI search•Training Back from the The Thinking-Feeling Connection People often believe that the feelings and emotions they experience are determined by external events, situations, and the behaviour of others. For example, we may hear ourselves say, “My boss made me so nervous,” “My partner made me so angry,” “This trip down south made me feel so relaxed,” or “I’m depressed because I didn’t get the job I wanted.” What is the assumption underlying these statements? That someone or something other than ourselves was directly determining the feelings we experienced. We come to these conclusions automatically without asking ourselves if this assumption is true. However, if we stop to analyse the process that links an external situation to our emotional responses, we will find that there is a step in between. How Our Thoughts Influence Our Feelings What really makes us feel and respond the way we do, is often not the situation or the words and actions of another person, but how we perceive that situation or that person’s actions. It is how we see something or someone and what we think about it or them that really influences how we feel. It is our thoughts and beliefs about an event that significantly influences our emotions and actions. Here’s an example. Suppose you went to a party and your host introduces you to Mike.

  • How Emotion Enhances the Feeling of Remembering
    ARTICLES How emotion enhances the feeling of remembering Tali Sharot, Mauricio R Delgado & Elizabeth A Phelps Studies examining memories of arousing ‘real-life’ events show that emotion heightens the feeling of remembering, without necessarily enhancing the objective accuracy of the memories. We measured brain activity associated with the feeling of remembering emotional and neutral photos. Subjects indicated whether recognition was accompanied by a recollection of details about the study episode (‘remember’) or not (‘know’). ‘Remember’ judgments were boosted for emotional photos, but accuracy did not differ. For neutral photos, ‘remember’ judgments were related to enhanced activity in the parahippocampal cortex, previously related to recognition of visual details, which one might expect to supply the retrieval clues for a ‘remember’ judgment. In contrast, ‘remember’ judgments for emotional photos were associated with enhanced activity in the amygdala, suggesting that subjects rely on arousal and perceptual fluency to evaluate these memories. For the first time, we identify the neural mechanisms underlying the enhanced feeling of remembering for emotional events. http://www.nature.com/natureneuroscience Highly emotional events are often reported to be remembered clearly, studies9–11 support the notion that ‘remembering’ engages neural sub- vividly and with great detail.

  • Emotion in Schizophrenia: Where Feeling Meets Thinking
    Current Directions in Psychological Science Emotion in Schizophrenia: Where 19(4) 255-259 ª The Author(s) 2010 Reprints and permission: Feeling Meets Thinking sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/0963721410377599 http://cdps.sagepub.com Ann M. Kring and Janelle M. Caponigro University of California, Berkeley Abstract Our understanding of the nature of emotional difficulties in schizophrenia has been greatly enhanced by translational research over the past two decades. By incorporating methods and theories from affective science, researchers have been able to discover that people with schizophrenia exhibit very few outward displays of emotion but report experiencing strong feelings in the presence of emotionally evocative stimuli or events. Recent behavioral, psychophysiological, and brain imaging research has pointed to the importance of considering the time course of emotion in schizophrenia. This work has shown that people with schizophrenia have the ability to experience emotion in the moment; however, they appear to have difficulties when anticipating future pleasurable experiences, and this perhaps affects their motivation to have such experiences. While advancements in our understanding of emotional experience and expression in individuals with schizophrenia have been made, these developments have led to a new collection of research questions directed at understanding the time course of emotion in schizophrenia, including the role of memory and anticipation in motivated behavior, translating laboratory findings to the development of new assessment tools and new treatments targeting emotional impairments in people with this disorder. Keywords schizophrenia, emotion, anticipation, memory Schizophrenia is a disorder that impacts many domains. Some new avenues for the assessment and treatment of emotional of its more recognizable symptoms involve difficulties in difficulties in schizophrenia are now under way.
