Description

This comprehensive introduction to emotion and cognition explores the intricate relationship between emotions and cognitive functions. The book examines how emotions influence attention, memory, judgment, decision-making, reasoning, and emotional regulation in various contexts.

Through an integrated assessment of empirical and theoretical works, as well as debates, this book sheds light on the mechanisms responsible for the beneficial and deleterious effects of emotions on cognition. It also investigates individual differences in emotion's role on cognitive functions, including how these roles change with age and in individuals with mood disorders.

As a valuable resource for students and experts alike, Emotion and Cognition provides a nuanced understanding of emotions' central role in guiding human actions, thoughts, and relationships. This book is an essential companion for anyone seeking to understand the complex interplay between emotions and cognition.
