Question 1) What does Lazarus mean when he says society provides us with a "template of human relationships and meaning"?
Question 2) Darwin's article explains that a reaction can be converted into a reflex action through habit. When this occurs, is there still an emotion connected to the motion?
Question 3) In his abstract, Oatley states "emotions configure our cognitive systems". How does this differ from Lazarus' theory?
Question 4) James states that in order to "conquer undesirable emotional tendencies in ourselves, we go through outward motions of those contrary dispositions we prefer to contemplate. Do you believe that this idea can be applied to Lazarus' theory? In other words, can thinking about a contrary disposition or a situation that would cause that disposition change your emotional tendency?
