Category: There are various forms of personal emotion expression. We can divide the emotional state into emotion, passion and pressure according to the intensity, persistence and tension of emotion.
1, mood
Mood is also called mood. Refers to the individual's weak, calm, lasting and infectious emotional state. Emotional experience will make people's emotions get the same color for a considerable period of time, which has the characteristics of long-term and dispersion. Diffusivity mainly means that emotions do not point to specific objects, but have a certain infectious effect according to emotions, and people's emotions can expand from themselves to other things around them.
Long-term means that emotions will dominate people's emotions for a certain period of time, and it will last for a long time, which may be hours, weeks or even longer. For example, an article by Lu Xun, which we studied, wrote that Sister Xianglin was depressed for a long time after losing her husband and son.
Step 2 be enthusiastic
It refers to an individual's intense, explosive and relatively short-lived emotional state. Passion can have positive or negative effects. Positive passion makes people feel great energy, inspiring, decisive, self-motivated and efficient. Negative passion will also bring destructive results because of its stormy and powerful energy, which will bring great consequences to personal work, study and life. For example, small frictions between young students lead to quarrels, fights, injuries and even life-threatening, all of which stem from temporary passion.
Step 3 emphasize
Refers to accidents and emergencies caused by individual's rapid and highly nervous emotional state. On the one hand, it may improve people's activation ability, which is manifested in quick wits and flexibility; On the other hand, it may also lead to people's behavior disorder, misjudgment, and inability to accurately make actions that meet the purpose at that time. However, if people are in a state of stress for a long time, it will reduce the immune ability of the body and weaken the sensitivity of the body to external stimuli.
