in psychological practice quite often there are cases of uncontrolled mind and will of the human actions that are normally erased in the memory of this man, after they were committed.This phenomenon is called the "heat of passion" and occurs due to the formation of internal conflict or as a response to a critical situation arose suddenly.The causes of passion can serve as various circumstances that can alter the mental and emotional state of a person.Thus, the state of affect in psychology involves a strong emotional experience that occurs for a short period of time and due to a change of circumstances which are of particular importance to the subject.At the same time there is increased human physical activity, emotional arousal, which can cause paralysis, expressive facial expressions and speech as well as the restructuring of the internal organs.Also, the heat of passion can be caused by the unexpected appearance of a stressful situation.
To distinguish these affects as physiological and pathological.
Affect saline associated with the occurrence of short-term emotional reactions accompanied by changes in human consciousness, while there is increased physical activity.
Affect pathological is a painful condition and has several stages of manifestation.Thus, initially there is emotional stress, which increases as the duration of the traumatic conflict, resulting in acute affective reaction occurs.In the second stage there is unmotivated physical activity, human consciousness while impaired.The last stage is characterized by the passion of motor inhibition, often terminal sleep and amnesia.We can say that in the heat of passion is characterized by a pathological form of human irresponsibility, as he loses control of himself.
psychologists distinguish several kinds of passion:
1.Klassichesky.It occurs in the form of brief violent reaction to the stimulus.
2. Accumulative.It is characterized by long-term accumulation of negative emotions and their subsequent explosion.
also highlights sthenic and asthenic affects.In the first case there is the appearance of the human force and the reaction to a stimulus that normally is not inherent in the life of him.In the second case, there is a certain emotion, as a response to the situation, for example, panic or fear.
accepted that occur most often affects people who do not take self-control, so never themselves do not hold back, and people with certain types of temperament and moral education.
Thus, the state of passion is always accompanied by physical activity, changes in facial expressions, speech, gestures, finally, the appearance of man.The most important thing here is the suddenness of its formation and rapid mastery of human consciousness.Affect inherent inadequate response of the subject, the distortion of its assessment of what is happening.Such a thing as a state of passion, accompanied by changes in the human body, it increases the level of adrenaline, blood pressure, disrupted blood vessels and internal organs, as well as coordination of movements that can cause fatigue and exacerbation of chronic diseases.
Psychologists found that with frequent stressful situations increases the risk of affective state, so it is recommended to use different techniques and methods for stress relief.
