Abstract

Emotions drive our lives in one direction or another. It not only defines our psychological health but also shades light on one’s goals in the external world. This paper introduces a mental network model to demonstrate how motivation states go together with emotion goals and goals in external world. The network model also deals with the variation in choice of strategies for regulating emotions to achieve the emotion goals. Moreover, it elaborates one example where anger, being a negative emotion, proves to be the right emotion goal to achieve goals in the external world. Simulation results are reported for the example scenario whereby the priority of emotion goals vary with the dynamic context.
