What is the difference between motivation and emotion?

Answer 1

Mental refers to the hardware of the brain, and often refers to the ability to think. Emotional is related to feelings and motivations.

Answer 2

Emotions are intense feelings that are directed at someone or something.

They are reactions, not a trait.

1. Moods are feelings that tend to be less intense than emotions and which

lack a contextual stimulus. They are not directed at an object.

2. Emotions can turn into moods when you lose focus on the contextual object.

Answer 3

Feeling:

Feeling is observation of tone skeletal muscles. Our reaction to changes in the external world are species specific even though we can modify it to some extent.

Thus, whenever we see food, the opposite sex or a wild animal what is to be done is predetermined. This response runs in the USM as an isometric movement. This isometric movement is what we call feeling.

Unified Skeletal Muscle is a physiological state in which all the skeletal muscles isometrically contract and relax as a single unit. Thus, it has the shape of our body. In the USM we can just feel movements and no visible movement can occur.

Under ideal conditions our reaction would be a reflex action with no feeling at all.

Thinking is also a kind of feeling.

Emotions:

Emotions are scales to measure the worth of feeling.

Every feeling induces change in the tone of the USM. This change is what we call emotion. By comparing the emotions induced by two feelings we can compare them.

In emotions along with the USM there is isometric contraction of a pair of muscles of facial expression.

Emotions too are feelings. However, in a feeling all the skeletal muscles of the body have different tones while in emotions they have the same tone.

There are two basic emotions,

1. Sensory emotion:

This is made of two opposing elements viz. pleasure and displeasure

2. Motor emotion:

This too is made of two opposing elements viz. fear and anger.
