Abstract
One objective of this article has been to develop a taxonomy of ‘sensations’, ‘feelings’ and ‘basic emotions’, and to distinguish these from personality traits. A second objective has been to clarify the relationship between emotional experience and personality and to describe how neurological differences can cause differences in the dynamics of emotional experience, either directly or as a consequence of a bias in learning, which are manifest as differences in personality or temperament, and in extreme cases as neurotic disorders. It is suggested that bias in emotional experience initiated by individual differences in the natural frequencies and damping ratios of thalamocortical oscillators is perpetuated and augmented by biased learning.
