James-Lange Theory:This theory suggests that our emotions are a result of our physiological responses to external events. In other words, we first experience physical sensations in our bodies and then label those sensations as specific emotions.
Cannon-Bard Theory:According to this theory, our emotional response occurs simultaneously with our physiological reactions. It proposes that both our bodily changes and subjective emotional experiences happen at the same time.
Two-Factor Theory (Schachter-Singer Theory): This theory posits that emotion is determined by a combination of both physiological arousal and cognitive interpretation of that arousal. It emphasizes the importance of cognitive appraisal in labeling an emotion based on bodily sensations.
