kelsey had a tough day at work, filled with little hassles and frustrations. when she got home, kelsey discovered that her partner had forgotten to pick up groceries. kelsey lost her temper and they got into a big fight. later she realized that she overreacted and that her emotions were really due to her frustration at work. this phenomenon is known as
misattribution of arousal
normal life
mistaken emotional outburst
misplaced aggression syndrome

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

For the first question:

  • The cognitive component of emotion involves the thoughts and interpretations. Reggie interprets the situation as a nightmare, while Lisa interprets it as exciting.
  • The biological component would involve physiological responses like shaking legs, racing heart, etc., which both have.
  • The cultural component is about cultural - based interpretations (not relevant here).
  • The practical component is not a standard component of emotion in psychological terms.

For the second question:

  • Misattribution of arousal is when a person misattributes the source of their physiological arousal. Here, Kelsey's frustration (arousal) from work was misattributed to her partner forgetting groceries.
  • "Normal life" is too vague.
  • "Mistaken emotional outburst" is not a recognized psychological term.
  • "Misplaced aggression syndrome" is not a standard term in psychology for this phenomenon.

Answer:

First question: cognitive
Second question: misattribution of arousal
