Question

Maive is interviewing for a job. She is required to undergo psychological testing. During the testing, the psychologist noted many of her responses indicated emotionality of anger and frustration. On an emotion map, these emotions have _____ arousal and _____ valence.

Answer 1

On an emotion map, these emotions have high arousal and negative valence

Step-by-step explanation:

"In general, emotional experiences can be described by two terms:

Valence

Arousal

Though the two terms are often confused, the difference is pretty simple. Valence is positive or negative affectivity, whereas arousal measures how calming or exciting the information is."

Answer 2

Answer: High arousal/negative valence

Explanation: A particular event causes a certain psychological arousal that, depending on our perception and processing, causes a certain emotion. When we experience and interpret events then we experience emotion. Since Maive answers questions related to real life during the test, she experiences these events as high arousal and experiences them with anger and frustration, thus with a negative charge, valence.
