[edit] Emotions

Stumbled across this idea while reading Paul Ekman, who researched universal human emotions. He'd show hundreds of faces of expression to many many different cultures and peoples, and the ones that had a 95% reliability of one definition across the full range of people we're deemed 'universal' (innate, biologically hardwired, whatever). In the end he found anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness and surprise were 'universal'.

anyways, about 3 of the 5 have sucky articles, but i decided to comb through {{emotion}} and {{Emotion-footer}} anyhow and grab some noms. i wish more were better.

• Happiness - vital b/high
• Grief - b/high (no refs)
• Fear - vital b/high (little short)
• Empathy - unassessed, i'd say b-ish /high
• Depression (mood) (although Sadness redirects here, how do we handle that?) - b/high

there we go! most were assessed by WP:PSYCH. JoeSmack ^Talk 16:06, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Great, I get a chance to say I Second That Emotion! Anyway, I think we can probably use the first four. I'd fail the last one since it seems to mix together general sadness (I guess the "mood" tag is supposed to indicate this) with clinical depression, which I think is rather different. For all of them, though, I'd like to hear the opinions of the Psych WikiProject, because there are a lot of people who fancy themselves as amateur psychologists, and those people will be tempted to add in their pet theory (probably uncited) into the article. I can't tell the amateurish nonsense from the accepted consensus of the experts. Walkerma 03:48, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Sadness and depression are different articles now, btw. It is just the hatnote that needs replacing. Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 06:34, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

VAMPIRE'S ARE THE SHIZZ =P XoXo

In Other Cases, Depression, asin Heartbreak, Lonelyness, Abusement etc, etc. Could Well, Lead To Suicide. Emo's Are Said To Be Depressed All The Time, But They Are Rarely Depressed If You Mofo's Leave Them Alone. =P
