Emotion
Emotion covers how you "feel." Emotional well-being allows you to calmly handle day-to-day challenges, maintain a positive outlook, adapt to change, and understand and care for others. NeoCORTA measures Emotion in 5 areas:
Anxiety
Anxiety is a feeling of fear or apprehension involving physical and/or mental experiences. Anxiety appears in the form of physical symptoms (e.g., sweating) or as a feeling of increased nervous energy. Moderate, short-term anxiety is a normal part of life, but it can cause a range of physical and brain-related problems if it's chronic.
Stress
Stress is a response to demands or changes in your environment. It involves emotional, mental, and physical components that each serve to help you meet challenges. Moderate Stress can be positive; for example, it enhances alertness and motivation, which increases your abilities. On the other hand, longer-term or high levels of Stress can weaken your emotional, mental, and physical capabilities.
Mood
Mood can be described as a predisposition, attitude, or state of mind. It can include positive emotions like happiness or enthusiasm for your everyday life. It also includes more negative states such as sadness.
Emotional Control
Emotional Control includes the ability to evaluate your feelings, manage negative emotions, and handle conflict.
Emotional Recognition
Emotional Recognition enables you to pinpoint feelings (in yourself and others) and to understand the ways in which your behavior may affect the emotions of others. This skill helps you to connect with others and better engage in social interactions.
