Fear and the focus of attention
Consciousness and Emotion 3 (2):105-144 (2002)
| Abstract | Philosophers have not been very preoccupied by the link between emotions and attention. The few that did (de Sousa, 1987) never really specified the relation between the two phenomena. Using empirical data from the study of the emotion of fear, we provide a description (and an explanation) of the links between emotion and attention. We also discuss the nature (empirical or conceptual) of these links. | |||||||||
