The Influence of Affect on Cognition01:29

The Influence of Affect on Cognition

338
Positive affect significantly influences cognitive processes, including evaluation, memory, creativity, and social judgments. Compared to negative affect, positive emotional states promote more favorable interpretations of stimuli, cognitive flexibility, and heuristic processing. These effects highlight emotions' powerful role in shaping how individuals perceive, remember, and interact with the world.Influence on Evaluation and AttributionWhen individuals experience positive affect, they are...

Some researchers suggest that altruism operates on empathy. Empathy is the capacity to understand another person’s perspective, to feel what he or she feels. An empathetic person makes an emotional connection with others and feels compelled to help (Batson, 1991). Empathy can be expressed in several ways, including cognitive, affective, and motor.

Role of Emotions in Social Life

447
Emotions play a fundamental role in shaping human experience and interactions. The absence of emotions would render life incomplete and fail to capture the essence of human nature. In social psychology, feelings and moods have been extensively studied due to their profound impact on social life and interpersonal relationships. These affective states influence decision-making, behavior, and social perceptions, making them integral to understanding human interactions.Emotions and Social...

Coping Strategies: Emotion Focused01:20

Coping Strategies: Emotion Focused

606
Emotion-focused coping refers to a set of strategies aimed at managing the emotional impact of stressors, rather than directly addressing their causes. This approach involves altering one's emotional response to stressful situations to reduce their psychological effects. For example, individuals might talk with a friend or engage in activities like journaling to express their feelings. Such actions can help achieve emotional clarity or release, providing the psychological stability needed...

The Influence of Cognition on Affect

260
Cognition plays a pivotal role in shaping emotional experiences, as demonstrated by Schachter and Singer’s two-factor theory of emotion. According to this model, emotion arises from a combination of physiological arousal and cognitive interpretation. The body’s physiological response to stimuli is ambiguous and only gains emotional significance through cognitive labeling. For instance, an increased heart rate and adrenaline surge while standing near an attractive person may be...

Traits, Mood, and Subjective Wellbeing01:22

Traits, Mood, and Subjective Wellbeing

341
Subjective well-being (SWB) refers to an individual's self-evaluation of their overall life satisfaction, happiness, and fulfillment. This multifaceted construct is typically assessed by analyzing the balance of positive and negative emotions alongside perceptions of life satisfaction. Personality traits such as neuroticism and extraversion are strongly associated with variations in SWB, offering critical insights into the underlying mechanisms of emotional well-being.
Neuroticism and...

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Knowledge Translation
  • Positive Psychology

Background:

  • Evidence-based practice is crucial for quality healthcare.
  • Knowledge translation (KT) into healthcare quality faces significant barriers.
  • Current KT approaches often overlook psychological factors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose unconventional approaches for promoting knowledge translation (KT).
  • To explore the role of positive emotion in sustaining KT in healthcare.
  • To integrate positive emotion theory with organizational knowledge creation theory for KT.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual paper synthesizing two distinct theories: broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions and organizational knowledge creation theory.
  • Analysis of theoretical intersections to identify potential applications in healthcare KT.

Main Results:

  • Positive emotion theories and organizational knowledge creation offer valuable insights for healthcare KT.
  • Three conceptual entry points for integration: knowledge-emotion relationship, positive emotions in Nonaka's knowledge creation, and mutual enrichment through upward spiraling.
  • This integration provides a novel perspective on overcoming KT challenges.

Conclusions:

  • The conceptual framework highlights the potential of positive emotions to facilitate knowledge translation in healthcare.
  • Empirical research is needed to validate these conceptual findings.
  • This approach offers a departure from traditional KT methods, addressing complex healthcare contexts.
