Researcher Ekman suggested that for an emotional state to be considered as basic it must exhibit seven elements. Which one of the following was not considered a basic element? a) distinctive physiological state b) distinctive eliciting stimuli c) almost instantaneous onset of the facial expression and physiological state, which last for only a brief duration d) automatic reaction regarding what the emotion entails e) neither c or d 3. Ohman and Mineka suggest that certain phobias (i.e. snakes) are common cross-culturally because a) children develop these fears through similar cultural practices, stories and adult reactions. b) humans contain evolved mechanisms to produce fear for dangerous stimuli that were important in evolutionary history. c) all humans are born with an archetype that unconsciously reacts to certain stimuli. d) none of these are correct. 4. Which of the following is true regarding the James Lange Theory of emotion? a) Conscious experiences of emotional states are driven physiological responses. b) Physiological responses of emotional states are driven by conscious experiences. c) Conscious experience and physiological responses occur simultaneously in reaction to stimuli, causing an emotional state. d) It is impossible to differentiate between whether the cognitive or physiological response occurs first in an emotional state. 5. The Cannon Bard theory suggested that cognitive aspects of affect could be experienced even when individuals could not sense any physiological changes. They based this conclusion on studies that involved a) patients that were given anaesthetics were still able to sense feelings although their autonomic nervous system was numbed.

2 b) injecting adrenaline into participants, and this did not increase their emotional responses to stimuli. c) rats that were enveloped in ice water (i.e. they were numb) still showed a normal fear response. d) reports that humans with spinal chord transections experienced no change in their ability to sense feelings. 6. In a study by Dutton and Aron (1974), they had a young woman introduce herself to participants either when they were on a high, swinging suspension bridge (high arousal) or when they were on a low, stable bridge (low arousal). Participants later had to rate the attractiveness of the young woman. The results of this study were consistent with the Schacter-Singer theory. Given this information, which of the following statements is true? a) Participants in the high arousal condition rated the young woman as significantly less attractive than did the individuals who were in the low arousal condition. b) Participants in the high arousal condition rated the young woman as significantly more attractive than did the individuals who were in the low arousal condition. c) Only the participants who had a fear of heights in the high arousal condition rated the woman as significantly more attractive. d) Participants in the high arousal condition rated the young woman as more attractive than did the individuals in the low arousal condition, but the difference was not significant. 7. What are somatic markers? a) The brain region in which emotional memories are stored. b) An innate emotional regulator in humans. c) The means by which out brain evaluates novel situations on the basis of previous experience. d) The gyri in the temporal lobe that project emotional responses when stimulated. 8. Which of the following is not an attribute of the Magda Arnold s Appraisal Theory? a) The theory explains the relationship between the physiological cognitive aspects of emotional states. b) The theory explains how emotions are generated. c) The theory has an emphasis on the cognitive (i.e. deliberate and conscious) component. d) The theory provides a framework for understanding why emotional states exist.
