Watson's 5 Elements of Emotion
Watson's 5 Elements of Emotion describe five key components that shape our emotional experiences: 1. **Cognitive Evaluation**: How we interpret and understand a situation. 2. **Physiological Response**: The body's physical reactions to emotions, like a racing heart or sweating. 3. **Subjective Experience**: Our personal feelings and perceptions tied to those emotions. 4. **Expressive Behavior**: How we express our feelings outwardly, such as smiling or crying. 5. **Motivation to Act**: The drive to respond or take action based on our emotions. Together, these elements help us navigate and make sense of our emotional lives.
