Lecture: Freud [1:14:39
mins.] [lecture in Peterson's 2015 course, Personality and Its Transformation]
[presentation on emotion begins at 40:26 mins., ends at 45:06 mins.]
[another possible end for the presentation is at 48:10 mins.] [tradition
has overly focused on rationality, and in doing so, has tried to "clear
out the emotions"; Peterson locates emotion in the context of
rationality, and in what we learn from Freud]
Tools, Emotions
and Meaning [7:09 mins.]
[tools and obstacles and how they help us understand emotions; reference
to anxiety (a state that you can't tolerate); goals and positive emotions
(a goal-oriented structure is a value system); the consequences of
a flat value system]. Alternative posting: Emotions
and Why Anxiousness is Your Worst Enemy
[2:58 mins.]. A 2nd alternative posting: What
Happens When You See a Tool [7:27 mins.]
No Goal, No
Positive Emotion [4:10 mins.]
[you are always in a framework; you have a goal and a route that sets
up your motivational framework; positive emotions are experienced
when you are moving toward a goal; some goals work better than others;
you want to be in a playable game; "there is a set of playable
games"; the game you play depends in part on your temperament;
a playable game is social acceptable; without a hierarchial structure
there is no motivation; you experience positive emotion in relation
to a goal; a goal provides your life with meaning]
Motivations
& Emotions [5:14 mins.] [motivations set goals
(they also prime behavior and they set up perceptual frames from which
you understand the world), emotions orient you in relation to goals;
"a motivated state is like a litke micro-personality" (it's
only aiming at one thing) (relates to Freud and the idea of sub-personalities)]

What are Emotions,
Feelings, Affect, and Mood? [6:08 mins.] [Todd
Grande] ["emotions are automatic reactions" (what we experience
in reaction to stressors); six basic emotions (anger, disguist, fear,
happiness, sadness, surprise); "feelings have a more cognitive
component" ("emotions that are precessed with thinking");
affect os usually thought of as emotion and feeling together; we can
use affect and mood interchangeably]
