Detailed explanation-1: -When Mr. Morgan misinterpreted his harmless symptoms of autonomic nervous system arousal as indicative of an impending heart attack, he suffered an unusually intense level of fear.
Detailed explanation-2: -Schachter and Singer’s (1962) Two-Factor Theory of Emotion suggests that physiological arousal determines the strength of the emotion, while cognitive appraisal identifies the emotion label. So, in this theory, the “two-factor” represents physiological change and cognitive appraisal change.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is the correct sequence of events in emotional response according to the Cannon-Bard theory? stimulus-> emotion AND physiological changes (simultaneous) Cannon and Bard disagreed with the James-Lange theory in that. they said the emotion is felt first, and the actions follow.
Detailed explanation-4: -According to the theory of somatic markers, the amygdala is the key place in the CNS that triggers somatic states from primary emotions, as it matures before the cerebral cortex of the frontal lobe.
