    EMOTIONAL

    ASPECT

    Prepared by:
    John Benedict C. Gojo Cruz, RPm, LPT
    “NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR SHOWING
    FEELINGS. WHEN YOU DO SO, YOU
    APOLOGIZE FOR THE TRUTH.”
    - BENJAMIN DISRAELI
    HUMAN BEINGS ARE EMOTIONAL BEINGS

    • Emotions are aspects of the self that could not be seen by the
    naked eye.
    • Emotion is complex.
    • Emotion is a state which involves a pattern of facial and bodily
    changes, cognitive appraisals, and subjective feelings and
    tendencies toward an action.
    • Emotion is necessary for survival.
    • Emotion is unstable.
    • Understanding emotions leads to the development of oneself.
    WHAT IS EMOTION?
    • A basic element of
    communication and socialization
    with other people.
    • Emotions are complex
    psychological states that involve
    three distinct components:
    1.Subjective experience
    2.Physiological experience
    3.Behavioral or expressive
    response
    EMOTION VS. FEELING VS. MOOD
    • Feelings can range from being subtle to intense depending on the situation but
    essentially, they involve an awareness of one's own emotional state as it manifests
    within the body.
    • Moods are essentially long-term feelings that tend to linger for days or weeks at a time.
    • Whereas emotions and feelings involve specific moments in time (e.g., feeling relieved
    when you wake up and realize you can sleep in a few hours longer), moods involve
    more pervasive feelings that stay with us for longer periods of time (e.g., overall
    contentment, anxiety, or depression).
    • Moods can be affected by factors such as stress levels, diet/nutrition, sleep patterns,
    and even genetics.
    • However, the most common causes involve ruminating on negative thoughts or
    experiences and suppressing unaddressed emotions.
    BASIC EMOTIONS
    Paul Ekman (Psychologist)
    SIX BASIC EMOTIONS (1972)
    1. Fear
    2. Disgust
    3. Anger
    4. Surprise
    5. Happiness
    6. Sadness
    Esther Esteban (1990) proposed eleven basic
    emotions that are important in our lives.
    • Love (Pagmamahal) • Aversion (pag-iwas)
    • Desire • Sorrow
    (Paghahangad) (Pagdadalamhati)
    • Joy (Pagkatuwa) • Despair (Kawalan ng
    • Hope (Pag-asa) Pag-asa)
    • Courage (Pagiging • Fear (Pagkatakot)
    Matatag)
    • Anger (Pagkagalit)
    • Hatred (Pagkamuhi)
    IMPORTANCE OF EMOTIONS

    It is essential to one’s physical survival or mental


    health.
    It helps distinguish whether certain emotions are
    socially appropriate.
    Emotions motivate behavior.
    Emotions play an essential role in creativity and
    intellectual curiosity.
    THE BIOLOGICAL
    BASES OF
    EMOTION
    ACTIVATION OF BRAIN REGIONS
    • The area of the brain known as the
    limbic system is highly involved in
    emotion.
    • The amygdala plays a particularly
    important role in regulating emotion.
    • Damage to the amygdala results in an
    inability to appropriately process fear.
    • People with damaged amygdala can’t
    recognize fear in other people, though
    they may be able to experience fear
    themselves.
    ACTIVATION OF BRAIN REGIONS
    • The autonomic nervous system is
    made up of two parts: the
    sympathetic and parasympathetic
    nervous systems.
    • The sympathetic nervous system
    prepares the body for action while the
    parasympathetic nervous system
    keeps the body still.
    • The sympathetic nervous system
    involves expanding energy, while the
    parasympathetic nervous system
    works to keep energy in the body.
    ACTIVATION OF BRAIN REGIONS
    • The ANS controls all automatic functions in the body.
    • When an emotion-evoking event happens, the sympathetic
    branch of the ANS, which prepares the body for action,
    begins to work.
    • It sends signals to the adrenal gland, which secretes the
    hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine.
    • These hormones, in turn, prepare a person to face the
    challenges of the event.
    GENDER DIFFERENCES
    • Some research suggests that
    males and females differ in
    how much emotion they
    express.
    • This gender difference in
    expressiveness is not
    absolute.
    • It depends on gender roles,
    cultural norms, and context.
    EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
    • It is the ability to perceive emotions.
    • It is a way to access and generate emotions to assist thought.
    • It is a form of understanding emotions and emotional knowledge and
    reflectively regulating emotions to promote emotional and intellectual
    growth.
    • It is the capacity to recognize our own feelings and the feelings of others
    to motivate ourselves and to manage emotions effectively in ourselves
    and others.
    • It is an array of non-cognitive capabilities, competencies, and skills that
    influence one’s ability to succeed in coping with environmental demands
    and pressures.
    • Emotional Competence – a learned capacity based on emotional
    intelligence that contributes to effective performance.
    EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
    • Emotional intelligence first
    appeared in a 1964 paper by the
    clinical psychologist Dr. Michael
    Beldoch, the concept gained
    popularity in the 1995 book written
    by the author and science
    journalist Daniel Goleman.
    • Goleman defined EI as the array
    of skills and characteristics that
    drive leadership performance.
    TWO COMPONENTS OF EI
    1. Intrapersonal Emotional
    Intelligence
    2. Interpersonal Emotional
    Intelligence
    GOLEMAN’S (1995) FIVE
    COMPETENCIES IN BUILDING E.I.
    Self-awareness
    Self-regulation
    Self-motivation
    Empathy
    Social Skills/Effective Relationships
    EMOTIONAL REGULATION
    • Identified as the individual’s ability to
    inhibit and modulate emotional arousal.
    • This involves an attempt to influence
    emotions.
    • Emotions could either be positive or
    negative in relation to one’s own
    emotions and those of another person,
    and they can be influenced in terms of
    intensity, duration, and quality.
    • A person capable of regulating his/her
    emotions examines first his/her
    conscience before acting on a difficult or
    stressful situation.
    A review published in the journal of Annual Psychology found that
    higher emotional intelligence is positively correlated with:
    1.Better social relations for children and adults.
    2.Highly emotionally intelligent individuals are perceived more
    positively by others
    3.Better family and intimate relationships
    4.Better academic achievement
    5.Better social relations during work performance and in
    negotiations
    6.Better psychological well-being
