Question: From Damasio's point of view how does the concept of mood differ from the concepts of emotion and feeling? Give an example of a mood and explain what emotions or feelings you think would be associated with it.
Mood is temporary state of mind that generally lasts longer than emotions/feelings which can be a result of the environment. For example one can be in a depressed mood just because it is raining outside. Emotions and feelings are more intense and are a result of an occurrence from a specific situation. For example, a father can be happy when his wife gives birth to their first child. This would be the motion. Feelings usually occur after emotions which can include the father being excited after the baby being born.
