Answer
Emotions are intense feel- ings directed at someone or something;
• Caused by specific event
• Very brief in duration (seconds or minutes)
• Specific and numerous in nature (many specific emotions such as anger, fear, sadness, happiness, disgust, surprise)
• Usually accompanied by distinct facial expressions
• Action oriented in nature
Moods are less intense feelings than emotions and often (though not always) arise without a specific event acting as a stimulus;
• Cause is often general and unclear
• Last longer than emotions (hours or days)
• More general (two main dimensions positive affect and negative affect that are composed of multiple specific emotions)
• Generally not indicated by distinct expressions • Cognitive in nature.
