Document Summary
Split brain operation: separating the left side of the cortex from the right corpus callosum is severed. But since second movements involve thought, they are more up to us. : the idea of second movements of bad emotions (anger, revenge) was transformed in a later era to the christian idea of seven deadly sins. Stein, trabasso, and liwag have extended the idea of goals to plans that are generated from them and the beliefs on which they are based. They propose that aspects of emotion- related appraisal unfold as follows: an event, usually unexpected, is perceived that changes the status of a valued goal, beliefs are often challenged. This can cause bodily changes and expressions to occur: plans are formed about what to do about the event to reinstate or modify the goal, and the likely results of the plans are considered.
