theory of emotion- human experience of emotion arises from physiological changes in response to external events.

# data[].attributes.body
He was very strong in structuralism

# data[].attributes.body
- The nerves to control what the body does

A weakness of Aristotle was that he relied most of his findings on experiences and senses and others argued that senses are unreliable.

Since knowledge was pre-existing you don't have to learn.
Not learning is not good.

Descartes believed that the mind and body where separate from one another. Once the body died, the brain continued to live. He also thought that the mind fluids "flowed" through the nerves to tell the body what to do, not only in humans but also animals.

The main idea is testing the lag between when we hear things. So dropping a ball and seeing how long it takes for us to hear it

# data[].attributes.body
he was unconvinced that psychology was in fact a distinct discipline. "This is no science; it is only the hope of a science"

# data[].attributes.body
sought  relationships between internal states and external behaviors.

It seems like his theory was created by the human senses or enforcing the human mind through sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. Like it says in the book "his method was to engage people
in self-reflective introspection". This means he had people explain their experiences through the physical experience they had. In other words his theory was people can explain their emotional or mental state by past, or present experiences they had physically. - Taylor W

cant be accurately measured

# data[].attributes.body
His theory is disputed because he is saying knowledge comes from experience and sense, and disputers argue that sense data is indirect. Some things we see are not really reality.
This theory is strong in physics but weak in mathematics.
It is only useful if it is possible to be experienced

# data[].attributes.body
Aristotle had a love for data and derived his principles from careful observations.

# data[].attributes.body
Aristotle was taught by Plato, a student of Socrates, and had a love of data. He derived principals from careful observation and said that knowledge isn't preexisting, instead growing through human experience.
A strength of this is that it came from actual observation so it had backing evidence behind it.

# data[].attributes.body
Descartes was believed to be standing upon the knowledge accumulated throughout human history

# data[].attributes.body
Empiricism accounts for reality rather than what we perceive reality as or want it to be.
It also studies humans directly, so findings are more trustworthy.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Hard to prove

2. His theory has no backing

3. Much skepticism around this theory

# data[].attributes.body
1. Explains much of the unseen and not understood in our world

2. Plato believed the forms brought happiness and virtue that could be gained through knowledge that comes from the power of reasoning and logic.

# data[].attributes.body
There are two realms, a physical and a spiritual. The spiritual is a realm of concepts that transcend time and space, and the physical is the realm of material objects, stuff we can see and touch in reality.  He also believed ideas were inborn (pre-exist).

# data[].attributes.body
one strength is that Descartes was right about nerve paths are important by enabling reflexes

# data[].attributes.headline
Main Idea: The mind is separable from the body and knowledge is born within us.

Main Idea: The mind is separable from the body and knowledge is born within us. 

# data[].attributes.body
His theory of empiricism meant he believed knowledge came from experience and that science should come from observations and experimentation

helps students today to be alert and aware of their own knowledge; developing skills used to benefit people to think quickly.

# data[].attributes.headline
knowledge was pre existing before you were born. 

# data[].attributes.subject
knowledge was pre existing before you were born. 

# data[].attributes.body
Your mind also lives on after you die, so basically spirit (mind) and body are separate but come together when you live.

Your group will be assigned a historical psychological thinker.

For your historical thinker(s), summarize the main idea of their theory as concisely as possible. Please use information from the textbook. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_R-EaG4dQFiRHNvRGk3Z3RmUWM/view?usp=sharing

Then add a strength and weakness about their approach.

Add the information to the class Padlet.

Please include the approach in the title and the names of the group members.

Present the information to the class.
