What is Meant by Calling Emotions Basic
Abstract
Emotions are discrete, automatic responses to universally shared, culture-specific and individual-specific events. The emotion terms, such as anger, fear, etcetera, denote a family of related states sharing at least 12 characteristics, which distinguish one emotion family from another, as well as from other affective states. These affective responses are preprogrammed and involuntary, but are also shaped by life experiences.

“• In enjoyment or happiness, significant quantities of oxytocin, serotonin, etcetera, are released, increasing available energy and dampening the effects of negative emotions, which would otherwise tax our body’s resources (Uvnaes-Moberg, 1998).”

“Other emotion researchers have found that guilt and shame have unique expressions (Keltner, 1995); however, the evidence that these are distinctly different from sadness is inconclusive.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
