Somatic anxiety refers to the 'perception' of phsyiological arousal, i.e. do you view butterflies in your stomach and increased heart rate when playing sport as positive or negative?
Phsyiological arousal does not include 'perception/interpretation' of the feelings. it is purely the butterflies in stomach, sweaty palms, or increased HR.
Cognitive anxiety is basically the psychological (mental) side of anxiety, it acts on the brain, and has symptoms such as; poor concentration, confusion, negative images and fear, whereas Somatic anxiety is the physical side of it, and acts upon the body, with symptoms such as; 'butterflies' in the stomach, tense muscles, sweating and nausea. Cognitive state anxiety is moment-to-moment changes in worry and negative thoughts, and Somatic state anxiety is moment-to-moment changes in perceived physiological arousal (arousal being a negative blend of physiological and psychological emotions).
Arousal is general physical and psychological activity. Anxiety is a negative emotional state with feelings of worry, nervousness and apprehension that is associated with the activation of the body.
Anxiety refers to feelings of worry or unease, often irrational and excessive, while arousal refers to a state of heightened alertness or readiness. Anxiety is typically perceived as negative and can impair functioning, while arousal can be positive and help to improve performance in certain situations. Both can involve physical symptoms such as increased heart rate and sweating, but anxiety is characterized by negative thoughts and emotional distress, whereas arousal is typically associated with excitement and anticipation.
Yes, arousal is certainly possible. But there is a difference between arousal and attraction.
The Schachter-Singer theory, also known as the Two-Factor Theory, proposes that emotions are the result of the interaction between physiological arousal and cognitive appraisal. It suggests that individuals interpret their physiological arousal based on the context, leading to different emotional experiences.
Arousal refers to the level of physiological activation in response to a stimulus, which can influence the intensity of emotions experienced. High arousal can sometimes lead to heightened emotional responses, while lower arousal may result in more subdued emotional reactions. The relationship between arousal and emotion is complex and can vary depending on individual differences and situational contexts.

Stress and anxiety are often used interchangeably but there are differences between the two. Stress is a response to an event that causes physiological stress in the body, while anxiety is a response to an event that causes psychological stress.
Not really a difference..anxiety is mostly a racing thought process caused by fear..
The Two-Factor Theory of emotion, proposed by Stanley Schachter and Jerome Singer, suggests that emotional experiences depend on both physiological arousal and cognitive appraisal. It states that an emotion is experienced based on how an individual interprets their physiological arousal within a specific context, which helps differentiate between similar emotional states. For example, experiencing increased heart rate and interpreting it as fear while in a haunted house would lead to feeling scared, whereas interpreting the same physiological arousal as excitement at an amusement park would result in feeling joy.
I think the difference between the two is that anxietywere you get worried about things, while anxiety disorder is when it is were you can't control you anxiety and you worry about everything. That is just what I inffer. Hope it helped!
Yes, females can experience physical arousal in a similar way to males, although the specific physiological responses may vary between individuals. Both genders can experience increased blood flow to the genitals, heightened sensitivity, and other physical changes during arousal.
