c. Catharsis often magnifies anger. escalates argoments, and leads to retaliation.d. When counterattack is justified and can bedirected at the offender, catharsis may be helpful.
13. d. is the answer. (p. 516)
14. c. is the answer. Easy or well-rehearsed tasks,such as sprinting, are best performed whenarousal is high; more difficult tasks are best performed when arousal is lower. tp. 517)
15. a. is tIre answer. That physical arousal can be mis-attributed demonstrates that it is the cognitiveinterpretation of arousal, rather than the intensityor specific nature of the body’s arousal, thatdetermines the conscious experience of emotions.(p. 520)b & c The findings of these studies do not indicate that a minimum level of arousal is necessaryfor an emotional experience nor that applying acognitive label must he simultaneous with thearousal.
16. c. is the answer. As heightened arousal mayreflect feelings of anxiety or irritation rather thanof guilt, the polygraph, which simply measuresarousal, may easily err. (p. 520)a. Misuse and invasion of privacy are validissues, but Lykken primarily objects to the use oflie detectors because of their inaccuracy.b. Although there are discrepancies among thevarious measures of arousal, this was not whatLvkken objected to.d. The lie detector errs about one-third of thetime.
17 d. is the answer. (p. 533)a. Because most fears are acquired through learning, people acquire highly indhiidual fears,

Essn Qzu’stion
All emotions involve some degree of physiologicalarousal of the sympathetic nervous system. Althoughthe arou’ai that occurs with different emotions is inmost wax s undifferentiated, there may be subtle diiterences in the brain pathways and hormones associated xvi th different emotions
Other examples of the influence of biological fantor on emotion are the universalitx of facial expresions of emotion and the fact that humans seem hiologicallx predisposed to learn some fears more quickly than others,
Unlike facial e\.pressions of emotion, the meaningof many gestures is culturally determined, Culturealso influences how people express their feelings. Incultures that encourage individuality, for example,emotional displays often are intense and prolonged.In cultures that emphasize human interdependence,negative emotions that might disrupt group harmornare rarely expressed, while displays of “othersensitiv e” emotions such as sympathy, respect, andshame are more common than in the West,
