You strike me as a psychology or philosophy student???Im afraid all of it came from my humble head.
Interesting point. Good ol definitions. My Collins dictionary defines Emotions as:So what do you regard as emotions? Feeling hungry? Hunger, warmth, fight, flight,panic, lust,play are feelings and not emotions in my opinion. Emotions are things like love (not to confuse with lust), compassion, mercy, mourning etc. The difference between an emotion and a feeling being a feeling is an expected result from given stimuli generally trigured by hormones released by the body. Feelings are responses designed to keep us safe and well. Where an emotion is not logical, and is not associated with hormones. There is no scientific explanation for them and no real use for them from a survival point of view. Yet they are our most distinguishing attribute and what makes us human. It's interesting that psychotic serial killers lack what i refer to as emotions, but they do have feelings.....
Did the units of Philosophy for first year as a general interest at UWA, whilst doing another course, was very good.You strike me as a psychology or philosophy student???
When does conditioning play a part in the 4 x 2 x 2?
Surely if we are using analogies of humans being vertebrates and so are snakes then conditioning would need to be taken into account....
Some humans are conditioned to high density living and don't mind it at all (some to the point of not liking wide open spaces) and some can not stand it (myself in that group). So snakes can be conditioned to like/thrive in their 4x2x2?
