Excitement, Plateau, Orgasm, and Resolution

Behavioral Changes

Facial Expressions - Universal Action (Such as coping/adapting) - Reappraisal - Expressive suppression

Broaden-and-Build Model

Neuropeptide Y (NPY)

Hormone that stimulates appetite; Released by the hypothalamus when an animal is hungry or underfed.

Ghrelin

Hormone that stimulates appetite; stimulates the release of dopamine and sends hunger signals to the brain; levels rise when we are hungry and drop drastically after we eat.

Leptin

Hormone that suppresses appetite; Produced by fat cells and inhibits neurons in the hypothalamus that contain NPY.

Insulin

Hormone that suppresses appetite; produced by the pancreas; production stimulated by rising glucose levels; transports glucose out of blood and into the cells.

Affiliation Motivation

Humans are inherently social creatures; Needs to belong and be accepted.

Evolutionary Forces

Humans crave foods that are essential to our bodies but that were scarce during early periods of human evolution.

Parental Investment Theory

If pregnancy results, the cost of having sex is quite different for men and women. MUCH greater for women. (Trivers, 1972)

Abraham Manslow

Introduced Hierarchy of needs; self-actualization

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (1990s)

Endocannabinoids

Marijuana-related naturally occurring neurochemicals that can also increase appetite.

Extrinsic Motivation

Motivation that comes from outside the person and usually involves rewards and praises. Can have drawbacks. Reward removed = Motivation can disappear Reward stays the same/does not increase = Motivation can drop

Intrinsic Motivation

Motivation that comes from within a person and includes four different elements: challenge, enjoyment, mastery, and autonomy & self-determination.

Abraham Manslow's Hierarchy of Needs

Needs range from most basic physiological necessities to highest psychological needs for growth and fulfillment. (Manslow, 1970)

Body Volume Indicator (BVI)

New measure introduced in 2017 to better determine obesity. Considers height, weight, AND mass distribution around the waistline.

Self-Conscious Emotions

Occur as a function of how well we live up to expectations of ourselves, others, and society. Includes embarrassment, guilt, humiliation, pride, and shame.

Permissive

One of three kinds of societies in terms of sexual attitudes; Few restrictions on sex.

Restrictive

One of three kinds of societies in terms of sexual attitudes; restricts sex before and outside of marriage.

Hypothalamus

Part of the brain that regulates all basic physiological needs; acts as hunger's sensory detector; plays a crucial role in sexual behavior and emotion as well.

Prefrontal Cortex

Part of the brain that regulates emotions and impulse control; gives us options for response, regulation, and re-appraisal.

Ovulation

Peak sex drive

Emotion as a Process

Metabolism

The rate at which we consume energy

Motivation

The urge to move towards one's goals; to accomplish tasks

Cultural Forces

We learn to like & crave foods common to our culture; frequency of exposure.

Body Mass Index (BMI)

Weight / Height; a way to define obesity; not a complete measure of fitness because it does not take muscle mass into account - therefore can be misleading.

expressive suppression

a response-focused strategy for regulating emotion that involves the deliberate attempt to inhibit the outward manifestation of an emotion.

Reappraisal

an emotion regulation strategy in which one reevaluates an event so that a different emotion results
