2. • Emotions are physiological, behavioral, and/or
communicative reactions to stimuli that are
cognitively processed and experienced as emotional.
• Primary emotions are innate emotions that are
experienced for short periods of time and appear
rapidly, usually as a reaction to an outside stimulus.
• The primary emotions are joy, distress, anger, fear,
surprise, and disgust.
3. • Secondary emotions are not as innate as primary
emotions, and they do not have a corresponding facial
expression that makes them universally recognizable.
• Secondary emotions are processed by a different part
of the brain that requires higher order thinking;
therefore, they are not reflexive.
• Secondary emotions are love, guilt, shame,
embarrassment, pride, envy, and jealousy.
4. How did you learn to express your
emotions?
• Like many aspects of communication and interaction,

expressing emotions.
• Instead, we learn through observation, trial and error,
and through occasional explicit guidance (e.g., “boys
don’t cry” or “smile when you meet someone”).
