Competition elicits arousal and affect.

چکیده
The emotion-cognition integration in Mather et al. can be extended by specifying the relationship between competition and arousal in the reverse direction. According to affective monitoring, competition raises arousal, which, when sustained, results in negative affect, evoking theta oscillations, and when resolved, in positive affect, evoking gamma oscillations. Competition should be considered a core process in both cognition and emotion.

The term affective may be defined as anything that expresses or elicits emotion, which itself is the complex psychophysiological state of mind involving physiological arousal, expressive behaviors, and conscious experience (Myers, 2004). Affect (the experience of feeling emotion) is one of the three components of modern psychology that includes the cognitive (processing) and conative (instincti...
متن کاملTaekwondo Fighting in Training Does Not Simulate the Affective and Cognitive Demands of Competition: Implications for Behavior and Transfer
Enhancing practice design is critical to facilitate transfer of learning. Considerable research has focused on the role of perceptual information in practice simulation, yet has neglected how affect and cognition are shaped by practice environments and whether this influences the fidelity of behavior (Headrick et al., 2015). This study filled this gap by examining the fidelity of individual (co...

UNLABELLED We studied the effects of intracerebroventricular injection of the novel neuropeptide orexin A on electroencephalogram (EEG) and autonomic nervous system activity in rats under isoflurane anesthesia. The administration of orexin A changed burst suppression patterns to arousal patterns on the EEG at 1.0 minimum alveolar anesthetic concentration (MAC) isoflurane and decreased the burst...
متن کاملResearch Paper: Do Computer Games Affect Arousal Level in Children With Attention/Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder?
Background: Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common psychiatric complication in children, which affects about 5-10% of the population. Although ADHD is a multi-factorial disorder, one of its causes refers to dysfunction of the arousal. Objectives: The current study aimed at investigating whether a change in arousal level in children with ADHD differs from the control group....
متن کاملNo arousal-biased competition in focused visuospatial attention.
Arousal sometimes enhances and sometimes impairs perception and memory. A recent theory attempts to reconcile these findings by proposing that arousal amplifies the competition between stimulus representations, strengthening already strong representations and weakening already weak representations. Here, we report a stringent test of this arousal-biased competition theory in the context of focu...
