YOGYAKARTA Certain emotions are often felt to encourage a person's actions to eat emotionally. In this condition, do not consider portions, eating hours, to eating more unhealthy foods. From this example, differences in emotions and important feelings are recognized, because people often realize' negative emotions that make eating unhealthy.
According to neuroscientist and emotional theory initiator Antonio Damasio's explanation, emotions are defined as complex interactions between sensory, brain, and body inputs. Because of these complex inputs, it can produce motor and physiological changes called active programs'. Motor and physiological changes are also triggered by internal or external environmental shifts to maintain or restore homeostasis. External strains, such as confronting predators, triggering emotions, while internal stimuli, such as hunger, relate to the basic urge to survive.
While feelings are a hybrid process that accompanies emotions, integration of the brain's perception of changes in the body becomes a coherent mental condition. According to the idea in Damasio's theory, awareness relies on interaction between homeostasis routine and multilevel interceptive maps with affect and feelings as a core.
Obviously the professor and psychiatrist Ralph Lewis, MD., reported by Psychology Today, awareness arises from a continuous flow of feelings related to the internal condition of the body. Such as sensations of fever, nausea, thirst, and well-being. This internal reception, called interopsy, continues to connect perceptual objects' with subjects' which then underlies self-flavour.
This interopsy process involves brain stem areas, such as central relay nuclei that are not completely isolated from the blood-brain barrier, thus allowing molecules in the bloodstream to directly affect the feeling of interopsy. This Nucleus facilitates a feedback circle between physiological state and subjective experience, which contributes to the mind's awareness of its own body.
If Damasio emphasizes homeostasis and the body's internal state as the basis of emotion, neurologist Joseph LeDoux focuses on the role of cognitive processes, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, in building conscious emotional experiences.
LeDoux is known for his work on the role of amigdala in the response to fear. He defines the amigdala as a defensive survival circuit.
When faced with danger, defensive responses such as escaping or silent hiding and the emergence of conscious feelings occur simultaneously. This is because both responses have the same starting point, not processed in amygdala.
This same starting point is a threatening stimulus. Like seeing snakes, thieves, criminals. This stimulus is then processed by the brain through sensory systems. Then branched neural pathways. Amigdala triggers a defensive response to the instincts and is not realized. While signals to the prefrontal cortex produce feelings of fear that are realized through cognitive interpretation. While the activation of amygdala can affect feelings of fear but does not create it.
For LeDoux, emotion is basically a conscious experience and fully understands it requires an understanding of awareness. Emotions are not a fundamental and programmed reflection state. But built cognitively, then formed by the brain's interpretive process. This happens in the cortical circuit, especially the prefrontal cortex, which according to LeDoux is an important territory for awareness.

In the theory of LeDoux, fear and all emotions are private and require self-awareness. Without awareness of danger, because it might make a person unable to feel fear. Together with its collaborators, Hakwan Lau, LeDoux categorizes memory or conscious experiences into three types. First, an annetic awareness involving implicit procedural memory, gives a lagnsung and non-reflective awareness without using explicit or introspective knowledge.
Second, awareness of semantic memory-dependent notics for factual understanding. Third, autonoetic awareness that uses episodic memory for self-reflection awareness, connects the present experience with past and future personal events.
In closing Lewis cited a philosopher's question, David Chalmers, which can be used as reflective material. The question is How can you have feelings without feeling it?. This map explains that the mechanism is affecty - on emotions and feelings - can't be separated from the experience you've experienced without explaining the experience in detail.
