You just finished a cup of very strong coffee, which causes your body to have a general feeling of arousal. That afternoon you walk past a cemetery where several people are crying at a graveside. According to Schachter and Singer, which of the following would most likely occur? a. You would work very hard to control your emotion. b. Your emotional state would be impossible to predict. c. Your emotion would be sad since the context would affect your labeling. d. Your emotion would be happy in spite of the scene at the graveside.

Respuesta :

c would be my answer 
The Schachter-Singer Theory of Emotion says that if you are not physiologically aroused and this is just a coffee-effect, you don't have kind of label inside, the label of feeling based o what is going on around you. Therefore, you might feel sad when something in the environment gets wrong, so the coffeine just puts a mask on you, but not on what you feel inside.According to this, I choose this c. Your emotion would be sad since the context would affect your labeling.
