1. The article by Lewis et al. explains the criteria upon which they based the emotion of embarassment. It says "The behaviors necessary to score embarrassment were a smiling facial expression followed by a gaze aversion and movement of the hands to touch hair, clothing, face, or other body parts." Do you agree that these actions should attributed to embarrassment? Couldn't the child go through the same motions just out of pure curiousity?
2. After reading the paper by Dunn et al., do you think there would be a link between which emotional themes the children most frequently talked about and which emotions they best recognize?
3. Tomkins refers to affect as an amplifier. When was a time that you experienced affect acting as an amplifier.
