In this lesson, we will strengthen your understanding on emotional intelligence, emotions, and the intensity of emotions. As an adolescent, at times you are being consumed by your emotions which got you into trouble. By the time you realized that your emotion is too strong, you’re done with actions that you later regret. Your knowledge on intensity of emotions can help you control yourself and avoid affecting others. Your deep understanding on different emotions, the triggering factors, the effective ways to handling strong emotions, and your level of Emotional Intelligence (EI) will guide you in positively communicating emotional expressions.

What is It

What are the basic emotions, its intensity, and effects on our actions?

Emotion is a subjective state of mind triggered by a certain stimuli or events which occur in the environment. It is a reaction to a certain event that happens.

Collins’s dictionary defined emotion as a feeling such as happiness, love, fear, anger, or hatred, which can be caused by the situation that you are in or the people you are with.

Emotions can be observed through body language and facial expressions, which explains how you feel or how are you doing at that moment. Through analyzing and reading facial expressions you may be able to understand what a person’s feelings. Physiological changes, as increased heartbeat or respiration, and overt manifestations, like crying or shaking of the body, and swaying of hand and arms may also give us an idea on what a person feels.

The Universal Emotions

Charles Darwin’s book The Expression of Emotions in Man and Animals (1872) suggested seven universal emotions associated with facial expressions. These emotions are, surprise, sadness, disgust, happiness, fright, anger, and contempt. These are common emotions associated with facial expressions which can be observed in activity1.

The expected responses in activity 1 are: 1) surprise-feeling of mild astonishment or shock caused by something unexpected; sadness-the feeling of being unhappy characterized by grief, despair, and disappointment; 3) happiness- a state of well-being and contentment; 4) anger- a strong feeling of being upset or annoyed because of something wrong or bad; 5) disgust-a feeling of horrified disapproval of something. Give yourself five claps if you got all the correct answers.

Emotions are connected to our brain and comes with facial expression used to communicate the emotion. Surprise, sadness, disgust, happiness, fright, anger, and contempt are called universal emotions as they are common regardless of culture, age, race, language, and religion.

Basic Emotions

Here are the Basic Types of Emotion as defined in Merriam-Webster Dictionary and Dictionary.com

1. Joy– the emotion evoked by well-being, success, and good fortune or by the prospect of possessing what one desires.
2. Sadness– this emotion is affected with or expressive of grief or unhappiness. It is characterized by feelings of disappointment, hopelessness, disinterest, and dampened mood.
3. Anger– it is a strong feeling of displeasure and antagonism.
4. Fear– this is an unpleasant, often strong emotion caused by anticipation or awareness of danger.
5. Trust-this emotion reflects firm belief in their liability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something
6. Disgust-it is a feeling of revulsion or strong disapproval aroused by something unpleasant or offensive.
7. Surprise– the feeling caused by something unexpected or unusual.
8. Anticipation– the act of looking forward; expectation or hope.

There are 8 basic types of emotions according to Psychologist Robert Plutchik, which was grouped into four pairs of opposites such as joy-sadness, anger-fear, trust-disgust, and surprise-anticipation. Plutchik also authored the “wheel of emotions” which was illustrated like the color wheel. According to Plutchik, emotions can be combined to form different feelings. For Plutchik, basic emotions act like building blocks while the complex or mixed emotions are blend of the basic ones. For instance, a combination of joy and trust creates love, contempt is a blend of anger and disgust.

In activity 2, you were tasked to give your reactions on the sample situation. All the emotions listed in letter B are basic emotions. These basic emotions are normal and important part of our lives. Some of these emotions are positive, some are negative. A combination of any two basic emotions may result to another emotion.

Your reaction on a situation might be different from others. Something funny to you might be frightful or disgusting to others. For instance, you might laugh when somebody farted in front of you, while others might feel disgusted and walk away. The worst is, some might yell and slap the person which shows anger. The difference in reaction depends on what the person feels on the situation. The emotion can be observed on the action, body language and facial expression of the person. The intensity of the emotion is also a factor on the reaction of the individual.

Intensity of Emotions

Emotional intensity refers to variations in the magnitude of emotional responses, an extreme degree of feeling. Therefore, the intensity of emotion identifies the action an individual will have. Intensity ranges from mild, moderate to strong.

There are instances when too strong emotion compels a person do something beyond the normal. A good example is when you unexpectedly receive a gift on your birthday, you might feel thrilled, others might feel happy, some might feel glad. Is there any difference with the terms? Yes, the intensity of the emotions.

If you will closely analyze Activity 2, the emotions are arranged based on intensity. All in letter A are Mild, letter B are moderate, letter C are strong.

Strong emotions should be dealt with caution as it may lead to action that a person might regret. For example, after feeling ecstasy for winning on the lottery, an overjoyed person might suffer heart attack. Moreover, a feeling of terror when somebody is trying to abuse you might end up making you quiet and not speaking or asking help to adult seven after being molested several times. It is getting common to hear news of a man or a woman committing suicide due to too much grief of losing a partner, girlfriend or a boyfriend.

[chart: circular diagram, Robert Plutchik’s Wheel of Emotions; Figure 1. Robert Plutchik’s Wheel of Emotions]

Labels as printed on the wheel (rotated text; transcribed as read):

• Outer ring (mild): Serenity; Acceptance; Apprehension; Distraction; Pensiveness; Boredom; Annoyance; Interest
• Second ring (basic): Joy; Trust; Fear; Surprise; Sadness; Disgust; Anger; Anticipation
• Inner ring (strong): Ecstasy; Admiration; Terror; Amazement; Grief; Loathing; Rage; Vigilance
• Center: Vigilance; Admiration; Terror; Amazement; Grief; Loathing; Rage; Ecstasy
• Combination labels: Trust + Joy = Love; Trust + Fear = Submission; Fear + Surprise = Awe; Surprise + Sadness = Disapproval; Sadness + Disgust = Remorse; Disgust + Anger = Contempt; Anger + Anticipation = Aggressiveness; Anticipation + Joy = Optimism; Serenity + Interest = Optimism [?]

In figure 1, Plutchik describes the inner circle as the strongest emotions, the next circle are the basic emotions which has moderate intensity, and the outer circle are the emotions with the mildest intensity

Another emotion was created because of a combination of two basic emotions.

For a clearer presentation of the Wheel of Emotions, look closely on the tabular presentation on the intensity of emotions. Observe that when two basic emotions on the second circle were combined, it results to another emotion.

Outer Circle Mild intensity emotions	Second Circle/basic emotions Moderate intensity emotions	New emotions created in between two basic emotions in the second circle	Inner Circle Strong intensity emotions
Serenity	Joy	Joy + Trust= Love	Ecstasy
Acceptance	Trust	Trust + Fear = submission	Admiration
Apprehension	Fear	Fear + Surprise= Awe	Terror
Distraction	Surprise	Surprise + Sadness= disapproval	Amazement
Pensiveness	Sadness	Sadness + Disgust= Remorse	Grief
Boredom	Disgust	Disgust + Anger = Contempt	Loathing
Annoyance	Anger	Anger + Anticipation= Aggressiveness	Rage
Interest	Anticipation	Anticipation + Joy= Optimism	Vigilance

In real-life situation, you may observe that before a person falls in love to a somebody, the first emotion is that they are happy together. While happily getting along with that person, trust starts to develop, and finally love blooms. It is common to see friends falling in love with each other because they trust and happy being together and ends up as lovers.

Now that we have learned the basic emotions and its intensity, let us study why do we need to control our emotions.

Is there any biological explanation of the emotions?

Your brain and your emotion

[illustration: sagittal diagram of the human brain with labeled structures; Figure 2. The Limbic System]

Labels: Thalamus; Hypothalamus; Amygdala; Hippocampus

Your brain is an organ of soft nervous tissue contained in the skull, functioning as the coordinating center of sensation, intellectual and nervous activity.

The limbic system controls emotion, memories and arousal. The almond-shaped section of nervous tissue called amygdala is the center of emotional processing. It is responsible for the perception of emotions such as anger, fear, and sadness, as well as the controlling of aggression. It stores value judgments we make and memories of behaviors that produce positive and negative experiences.

For example, while walking alone on the dark alley, you heard footsteps. Your reaction might be to walk faster or run with your best speed. This reaction results from prior negative experience while walking alone in a dark road, perhaps you’ve watched the same scene on television. The amygdala stores the memories of what you experienced or what you’ve watched. Then, it gave you judgment that something bad might happen to you, thus you feel fear, and react by running fast.

How does learning Emotional intelligence (EI) helps you to be successful?

[illustration: two profile heads, one with gears and one with a heart, with arrows between them; caption: EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE]

The term Emotional Intelligence (EI) was created by two researchers – Peter Salovey and John Mayer but was popularized by Daniel Goleman in his 1995 book Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ. Goleman discussed that EI is important to be successful in academic, professional, social, and interpersonal aspects of one’s life and a skill that can be taught and cultivated in schools.

Emotional intelligence is defined as the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one’s emotions, and to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically. Therefore, it is the key to both personal and professional success.”

For Goleman EI is the ability to: 1) Recognize, understand, and manage our own emotions; 2) Recognize, understand and influence the emotions of others. This means being aware that emotions can drive our behavior and impact people either positively or negatively. Then, it is essential to learn how to manage those emotions especially when under pressure.

There are five essential elements of emotional intelligence.

• Self-awareness knowing what one is feeling at any given time and understanding the impact those moods have on others.
• Self-regulation controlling or redirecting one’s emotions; anticipating consequences before acting on impulse.
• Motivation utilizing emotional factors to achieve goals, enjoy the learning process and persevere in the face of obstacles.
• Empathy sensing the emotions of others.
• Social skills managing relationships, inspiring others and inducing desired responses from them.

[chart: diagram; Emotional Intelligence. Labels: SOCIAL SKILLS, SELF AWARENESS, MOTIVATION, EMPATHY, SELF REGULATION, around the center text “EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE”]

Based on Goleman’s study, how a person react in a situation may influence others and affect efficiency. Therefore, a person must avoid making decisions when under pressure, feeling down or when experiencing too strong emotions such as when so happy or very angry. It may lead to wrong or inappropriate decisions and actions.

Look at these questions presented earlier. If you answered yes in each of the questions, then you are already practicing the essential elements of emotional intelligence in the past without knowing it.

Do you	Yes	No
a) know that your emotions and actions may affect others?
b) control your emotions not to verbally attack others?
c) enjoy the learning process and persevere in the face of obstacles?
d) you work hard to see things through others’ eyes; put yourself in someone else’s position?
e) inspire others and induce desired responses from them?

Additional Activities

You successfully reach the end of this lesson. Now you are to do a certain task to further improve your skills on emotions.

After learning something, it is important to reflect. Reflection involves careful thought, and reconsidering previous actions, events, or decisions that you made. After contemplating, write a diary note and write down your thoughts there. Be guided by the instructions below.

Write a four-paragraph reflection on how you communicate your emotions in the past. Consider the following guide instruction/questions.

1. Prepare a title that would best describe the strongest emotions that you included in your reflection.
2. How did you communicate your emotions (example: anger, happiness, fear, trust, disgust) to your parents, friends and classmates in the past? Cite instances.
3. What made you do those actions?
4. If the same instance will happen now that you have learned emotional intelligence, would you do the same? Why? Whynot?
5. Conclude your reflection with the best way to show understanding of different emotions.
