February 2: Emotions

Class Activities:

1) Neuron Note/Psych News. You read last time's responses and you write a new question. Then you heard the news presentations.

2) ) Achievement Motivation. We talked about Flow, I/O Psychology, birth order and achievement, desirability of control, purpose in life.

3) How Many Emotions? We tried to make a list. Then we looked at Plutchik's Emotion Wheel and Eckman's Facial Expressions to determine how many emotions exist.

4) Emotions readings/surveys. You worked quietly to read supplemental material that related to the chapter reading.

Assignments:

1) Read chapter 14 up to page 555.

2) Emotions/Stress Activity. Continue working on one of the four activities for this assignment: video taping deception and asking people to detect the lies, recording your daily mood, monitoring your anger, and meditating. It is due on Friday.
