Abstract
The influence of James's theory of emotions on modern theories of social behavior has been pervasive. Major modifications in Jamesian notions have occurred as a function of methodological, empirical, and theoretical advances in the field of psychology. An expanded but essentially Jamesian arousal-cognition model of arousal-based behaviors is proposed and described briefly. This model takes account of recent advances in psychophysiological research focused on individual differences in stimuli-elicited arousal and the perception of arousal.Keywords
