Examples: focus attention, motivate to act, prepare body to act, communicate to others what we are feeling. An innate emotion that has universal and fixed facial expression across all human cultures. "laws" which govern how we in our future are permitted to express emotions publicly. Emotions are felt after the body reacts and are the result of varying physical reactions to stimuli. Facial feedback hypothesis: you feel emotions in part because of the way your muscles are positioned in your face. There are separate brain systems for different emotions. Some systems operate as reflexes, others depend upon thought and interpretation. The ability to adapt to, shape and select environments necessary to accomplish one"s goal.
