Description
Basic science of emotion: The following five core principles of emotional expression in rats have been corroborated by recent human ethological studies : [1] Active social interactions are the most robust elicitor of emotional responses (i.e. rough and tumble play); [2] The internal state of the organism, not the nature of the stimulus, determines the affective valence (i.e., positive vs negative); [3] Social interaction begins with positive affect, and negative affect builds up over time; [4] The switching point from approach to avoidance occurs when the ratio of hedonic to aversive calls reaches 4:1 (80% positive and 20% aversive); and [5] The culmination of these properties leads to the expression of emotion and the daily rhythm of mood, in which positive affect is associated with active wake behaviors and negative affect with passive wake behavior, which transitions to sleep.
