1. Emotion plays a role in driving how we think and behave. In your readings and resources in this unit, you learned about theories of emotion and the misattribution of arousal.

Describe how emotion is relevant to our sense of belonging. In your discussion, include various emotions such as happiness, anger, and guilt. How does culture play a role in the regulation and expression of our emotions?

2. Your textbook authors introduce the idea of emotional intelligence and its four components, to: 1) perceive emotions, 2) access and generate emotions to assist thought, 3) understand emotions and emotional knowledge, and 4) reflectively regulate emotion to promote emotional and intellectual growth (Baumeister & Bushman, 2014). Search for information on emotional intelligence in the Capella library or on Google Scholar. (Avoid using popular media sources such as Wikipedia.)

Discussion

Describe your understanding of emotional intelligence, and support your thinking with information from your resource(s).

How does emotional intelligence or its components relate to some of the other concepts you have learned from your unit readings over the past four weeks, such as self-regulation, self-esteem, et cetera? What strategies can people use to intentionally develop their emotional intelligence?
