Question

which of the following equations best represents the two - factor theory of emotion?
○ emotion = affect + arousal
○ emotion = arousal + cognition
○ emotion = arousal - cognition
○ emotion = arousal x cognition

The two - factor theory of emotion (Schachter - Singer theory) states that emotion is the result of physiological arousal (arousal) and cognitive interpretation (cognition) of that arousal. So the equation that best represents it is emotion = arousal + cognition.
