The circumplex model of affect proposes that all affective states arise from cognitive interpretations of core neural sensations that are the product of two independent neurophysiological systems. This model stands in contrast to theories of basic emotions, which posit that a discrete and independent neural system subserves every emotion. We propose that basic emotion theories no longer explain adequately the vast number of empirical observations from studies in affective neuroscience, and we suggest that a conceptual shift is needed in the empirical approaches taken to the study of emotion and affective psychopathologies. The circumplex model of affect is more consistent with many recent findings from behavioral, cognitive neuroscience, neuroimaging, and developmental studies of affect. Moreover, the model offers new theoretical and empirical approaches to studying the development of affective disorders as well as the genetic and cognitive underpinnings of affective processing within the central nervous system.
情感环状模型提出,所有情感状态都源于对核心神经感觉的认知解释,而这些核心神经感觉是两个独立神经生理系统的产物。该模型与基本情绪理论形成对比,基本情绪理论认为,每个情绪都由一个离散且独立的神经系统提供支持。我们认为,基本情绪理论已无法充分解释情感神经科学研究中的大量实证观察结果,我们建议在研究情绪和情感心理病理学的实证方法上需要进行概念转变。情感环状模型与行为学、认知神经科学、神经影像学以及情感发展研究中的许多最新发现更为一致。此外,该模型为研究情感障碍的发展以及中枢神经系统内情感加工的遗传和认知基础提供了新的理论和实证方法。
