What are the moods of a person and what are they: types, types, scale and background

What is a mood

Our spiritual sphere has a large number of components, including emotions and feelings. Our emotions are determined by situations: we are angry at a specific action or happy about certain actions. Feelings are always an attitude towards an object, an object - I love this dog, I am satisfied with the work done, etc.

Mood

- this is the general emotional background at the current moment in time, independent of the object or circumstances.

Of course, there may be an external factor that influenced a sharp deterioration in mood (a person or an event), however, when it disappears, we do not feel better.

The internal state is important for a person; how our day, and therefore life, will go depends on it.

The distinctive features of mood from other emotional components are:

The brightness of the emotional background is lower than that of feelings or emotions
. A sad mood is not as actively experienced as rage or anger. If it is good, then it does not manifest itself too strongly on the outside; we can jump for joy, rather with emotions of happiness and delight.
Mood is a longer lasting state than emotion
. The latter lasts seconds and minutes, the mood may not change for days and weeks.
Lack of awareness of the reasons for a particular mood
. Our emotional mood is in most cases unaccountable, the subject of mood changes is absent or poorly defined: a person is “overwhelmed.”
Mood has a contagion effect
. If it is good, then the sky seems bluer and the work progresses. When your mood is low, it affects both your actions and your attitude towards other people. For example, a pleasant person begins to irritate.
The mood is very multifaceted, it has a large number of components
. It happens that a person himself is not able to describe and analyze it. In addition, the mood can combine different emotions. A mother giving her daughter away in marriage is both happy and sad at the same time.

Like other emotions, mood can be inspiring and exciting, or it can negatively impact productivity. In psychology, there are still no unified approaches to the nature of the emergence of this or that emotional background; the factors that cause it have not been definitively identified.

At the same time, the functions of this phenomenon are clearly established:

A person's mood can tell others a lot about the individual's needs.
Attitude determines a person’s acceptance of a specific behavioral model.
The emotional state leads to self-regulation and forces one to adapt to external factors.

Another indisputable statement is that the mood is based on physiological factors: hormonal and biochemical processes occurring in the body.

Concepts: emotion, feeling, mood. 8 basic emotions

From the author: in this note I will introduce you to the difference between Emotion and Feelings, Mood, Feelings and Mood. I will introduce you to 8 basic Emotions.

While studying to become a psychologist, I was interested in emotions, namely the role of emotions in human life, and what techniques can be used to manage emotions .

Since from childhood, parents establish prohibitions on the manifestation of certain emotions . And when a person is an adult, he does not even notice how he forbids himself to express emotions, and stops listening to his inner voice. This leads to the fact that a person communicates with those who hurt him and cannot break out of this vicious circle.

Or he breaks out and again ends up in a relationship that does not allow a person to be himself.

I suggest you get acquainted with the concepts: emotion, feeling, mood.

I provide this information briefly and in an easy to understand form. We can experience: emotions, feelings, mood. What is the difference? The time period of their manifestation.

An emotion is a short-term state in which a person finds himself.

A feeling is a longer state in which a person resides.

Mood is a state in which a person can remain from a day to several days and months.

For example: a person unexpectedly encountered a situation and experienced an emotion of irritation or joy. And he moved on. If the emotion is still present in him, he continues to think about what happened, then this feeling is inside the person, and he can be aware of it. An emotion quickly appears and disappears, and is not recognized at the moment of its appearance. A person can be aware of a feeling and live until he encounters the next event. If a feeling does not leave a person, and no external events or people can influence the change in this feeling in a person, then it turns into a mood. This may be a mood of depression - sadness, sadness, unconscious anger and other stuck emotions inside a person. All other emotions and feelings, if they appear in him, quickly disappear. For example, euphoria, which can initially be confused with the emotion of joy.

Remember the fairy tale “Princess Nesmeyana”.

She was stuck in the emotion of sadness, which turned into her mood. Everyone tried to cheer her up, but she still started crying in the end.

But one person was able to make her laugh. He was hardworking, kind, lived on the move, and all the emotions that visited him immediately came out without lingering in him.

We have approximately 8 basic emotions :

Two positives:

joy and interest (curiosity);
one regulating one is surprise (amazement). It helps you switch from one emotion to another. This is what you do with children when they cry or demand something. “Misha, look at the sky, the plane is flying!”

Five negatives:

irritation (anger, aggression, rage),
timidity (fear, horror),
awkwardness (shame)
contempt (disgust for another or oneself),
sadness (sadness, grief, melancholy)…

These emotions were discovered and described by Charles Darwin while studying animals.

If you have pets, then you notice emotions in their eyes. Animals experience emotions and live them immediately. If they are forbidden, they either die or become domesticated. But, note, domestic cats - they still show their emotions, even if it is prohibited. And dogs too. This is why you should not keep tigers and crocodiles in your home, because if they feel angry, they will show it and attack the one who caused this emotion. They will not, like people, suppress their emotions. If they are happy, they will definitely show this emotion, for example, the dog will jump on the owner and lick him. And she cannot be stopped.

All other emotions are called complex emotions and consist of several basic emotions. For example, jealousy can consist of anger, and (or) shame, and (or) grief.

Resentment and Guilt are also considered complex emotions. Resentment - anger, fear, sadness. Guilt - shame, grief, anger.

Thank you!

With love!

What kind of mood is there?

With all the variety of types of mood, a person usually characterizes it as good or bad.

A bad mood is...

The symptoms of low mood are known to everyone:

everything seems hateful;
laziness overcomes;
there is no desire to communicate with family and friends.

Depending on mental characteristics, a person tries to either hide from the world or take it out on loved ones. We do not always understand the reasons for our condition, it is important to know one thing - a bad mood is an indicator that not everything is going well in our lives.

It is necessary to understand the causes of decreased tone, especially if the condition recurs regularly. After all, a bad mood that persists for a long time is already depression that needs to be treated. Constant despondency provokes other bodily ailments, including oncology.

Most often, this tone causes dissatisfaction with oneself, a feeling of guilt, and a lack of purpose. Calmly analyze what could have caused the decline in emotional background. A bad mood is a reason to delve into yourself. Why have I stopped loving myself so much that I allow sadness to ruin my life?

Eradicate dislike for yourself, pamper yourself like a little child. Sometimes a bad mood is a reaction to pathological processes in the body, changes in hormonal levels. In this case, you should consult a doctor for an examination.

good

A person in a cheerful mood can be identified even visually. He has a straight back and a mischievous look. Physiological processes are activated - the stress hormone cortisol is absent, heart function improves, facial muscles are relaxed, and an involuntary smile appears. Optimists and cheerful people look very young for quite a long time, their nasolabial folds are less pronounced.

In a good mood, we are ready to “move mountains”; any activity is productive and interesting. We enjoy doing household chores, finding pleasure in cleaning the apartment and plowing the potato field. At work, at such moments, we are able to redo everything that we have been putting off for a long time.

A person can hum, reaches out to people, they are close to him, and the level of empathy increases. There is a tendency to help people “just like that”, without demanding anything in return. Even old enemies don’t seem so unpleasant, and you don’t even want to think about them at all.

Creativity in this state also increases - new ideas appear, you want to engage in creativity or sports. A person thinks through plans to improve himself and his life - take up physical training, find a new source of income. I want to rearrange the furniture in my apartment and buy a new tablecloth.

A good mood is an emotional uplift, which has a great effect on health, appearance and leads to productive activity.

Joy

This type of mood is characterized by elation and a sense of positivity.
A person internally feels favorable and is ready to solve the necessary problems. The future does not cause him a state of fear, suspiciousness or anxiety. Being in joy, living it with one’s own feelings, a person freely reveals his emotions. This mood can be called complete satisfaction. A person openly communicates with others and shares with them his positivity, which is literally reflected in his eyes. You can always notice from the outside that someone next to you is in a good mood. He becomes the sun that shines and warms everything around.

Joy helps to recover from many different ailments. After all, when a person is in a good mood, all sorts of illnesses recede and go away under the influence of positive emotions. What kind of mood she has depends on the individual herself.

Types of moods

Bad and good mood are states that we understand, but this classification is very simplified. In addition, conflicting emotions can be mixed at the same time.

For example, you met an old school friend. On the one hand, you are glad that you saw her and talked. On the other hand, you are embarrassed because it took you a long time to find answers to the questions. In addition, you may be disappointed that you didn't look your best.

In addition to good and bad, psychology distinguishes the following types of mood.

Sad

Characterized by a low emotional background and passive actions.

Predominant emotions:

Boredom.
Anxiety.
Laziness.
Fear.
Closedness.

The person is not confident in himself, the level of self-esteem is low. Melancholy, apathy, sadness, melancholy, and aversion to any type of activity sets in.

Working

The mood is neutral, there is no particular joy, the level of activity is moderately active.

Human condition:

Cheerful. There is aspiration towards the goal. Expressed interest in productive work.

In a working mood, we are aimed at achieving success and get down to business with enthusiasm.

Joyful

Characterized by increased emotional tone and active actions.

Characteristic emotions:

Delight.
Inspiration.
Optimism.
Euphoria.

A person is at the mercy of such feelings as love, trust, faith in success. The level of determination and desire to act is increased.

Negative

The emotional background is elevated, negative in nature, with a desire for active actions of a destructive nature.

Emotions experienced:

Aggression.
Anger.
Fury.
Annoyance.
Disgust.
Contempt.
Resentment.
Guilt.

Often arising against the backdrop of unforeseen undesirable situations, negative actions can be directed towards other people and even inanimate objects. A person is capable of hitting, starting to destroy pieces of furniture, i.e. throw out irritation outward.

Neutral

The emotional tone is muted, perhaps slightly increased, but the activity is low.

Characteristics of this mood:

Expectation.
Abstraction.
Contemplation.

In such states, we observe what is happening from the outside, analyze events and people’s actions, and draw conclusions. This is a kind of emotional rest, calm contemplation of reality.

The presented classification is also incomplete and cannot reflect all the shades of emotional states inherent in a person. People often confuse the concept of a bad or sad mood with depression. This is fundamentally wrong.

We have already said that mood is distinguished by such a feature as a short duration in time. If sadness and apathy last for weeks, it is necessary to undergo treatment, this is a pathology.

Definition of the concept

It is difficult to give an exact definition of what a mood is. This concept is not easy due to its uniqueness and non-objectivity in each specific case. The authors of scientific works agree that mood is an internal psychological or emotional state that conveys the characteristics of physical existence, the spiritual world and the mental organization of a person in the context of ongoing events. The condition is reflected in all activities and becomes noticeable in behavior.

The formation of mood is influenced by a combination of factors, among which are:

Health status. There are many processes going on in the body, including the production of certain hormones that affect mood. However, they are not as noticeable as the presence of pain, malaise or a cold, which make themselves felt and worsen overall well-being, affecting behavior.
Presence of psychological illnesses. If a person is mentally ill, he goes to extremes: a very depressed and sad mood during depression, extremely elated during mania syndrome. When it comes to bipolar mental disorders, both extremes are observed.
Personal characteristics of character and temperament. They set the general emotional tone: what mood prevails, and what frequency of mood changes is characteristic.
Personal experience. Stable emotional associations with past events are deposited in memory, and returning to them influences the perception of a similar situation in the present. Associations arise without human control; the source may be unknown and located in the subconscious.
Living conditions, all external factors. Any event and interaction with other people causes a bouquet of experiences that colors the mood positively or negatively.
Use of medications, alcohol, drugs.

Factors influencing a person's mood

It is within the power of a person to raise his morale, try to cheer up and tune in to a positive mood. But the reasons for our mood are often unconscious. How can factors influence it?

Physical condition of the body

"In a healthy body healthy mind!" - This is true. Our mood is closely related to the state of various systems: endocrine, vegetative-vascular, nervous, hormonal.

Mood swings often occur due to hormonal imbalances, and heart problems lead to emotions of fear and melancholy. Many people know what a disgusting mood after drinking a large amount of alcohol, the poisoned body takes revenge on its owner.

It happens that neurons limit the production of proteins serotonin and dopamine, which are hormones of joy and happiness, then despondency and melancholy set in. The state of health is not among the primary factors of melancholy or mood, only in the presence of severe mental or physical disorders.

Objective circumstances

The leading reasons influencing the emotional background are external factors. Any event that does not seem worthy of attention at first glance can contribute to a change in mood. Moreover, it is difficult to immediately say in which direction our emotions will move.

Imagine early spring, you went outside, the sun is shining brightly after a long winter. This fact can fill you with joy for the whole day; we, like any living creature, have been strengthened by the energy of the luminary. But, literally, after 100 meters, a passing car splashed your expensive suit, and now the state of euphoria has already disappeared somewhere, giving way to annoyance and irritation.

Psychologists believe that further emotional background will depend on two factors:

the significance of each circumstance personally for the person;
an individual's predisposition to perceive positive or negative emotions.

For one of us, rain is a spoiled mood for the whole day, for the second it is an opportunity to run through puddles, like in childhood, and read a book at home.

There are external reasons that will definitely plunge a person into a serious state - death or separation from loved ones, loss of livelihood, illness of a child, news of losses, etc. No sane person would have fun in such situations. Nevertheless, there is a way out of any trouble (except death), a mature person will look for it and find it. Prolonged suffering will lead to loss of meaning in life and psychological pathologies.

Mental characteristics of personality

All people are divided conditionally into 4 psychotypes, on which their characteristic emotional background depends:

Phlegmatic people do not get excited by momentary emotions
. Their mood is maintained for a long time and is not subject to frequent changes. The experiences of phlegmatic people have a calm course, they are smoothed out. Therefore, the mood of such people is mainly neutral or working.
Cholerics flare up like matches
. Emotions and feelings are always sharp, bright, if there is delight, then to a squeal, if anger, then to assault. Their life is an emotional swing. But experiences do not last long; they quickly cool down. Accordingly, the mood with such a temperament changes quickly (five minutes of laughter, five minutes of tears).
Melancholic people are always in a state of unaccountable sadness
. Remember Pierrot from the fairy tale about the wooden Pinocchio. Such people have a low emotional background and are unable to experience bright positive emotions. Any external obstacle can ruin an already bad mood.
Sanguine people are able to experience vivid feelings, but their emotions are closer to calm
. Such people do not dwell on the negative for a long time, have high self-esteem, and are able to control their mood. They spend most of their time in a cheerful mood, sometimes in a neutral state.

When we learn to recognize the factors that influence our mood, we can change it.

Species and types

Since mood relates to emotional processes , it is directly related to emotions, therefore the names of types of mood intersect with the names of emotions.

Main types of mood:

Upbeat, positive. There is a degree of severity for each type of mood, including this one. Elevated mood can range from slightly upbeat to joyful and happy. A very high mood is usually observed in cases where something very good and bright has happened in a person’s life.
Sad, depressing. The severity of sadness can also vary.
Extremely depressed mood is usually associated with recent emotional distress, but it can also be a symptom of mental illness, especially if it persists for more than two weeks. A moderately sad mood is often observed in people on rainy days in the autumn-winter period.
Bored. Boredom occurs when a person loses interest in something they are currently doing (and sometimes interest does not appear). Combined with the desire to do something more interesting. A bored person is more likely to be distracted, may daydream about what he will do when he can change his surroundings, and regularly look at his watch.
Inspired. It is usually colored positively and has a positive effect on the motivation of a creative person. In this mood, most creative ideas are realized faster and better, and the person experiences a deep sense of satisfaction and happiness.
Irritable. Can also range from extremely irritable, aggressive, to frustrated. The more pronounced the irritation, the more difficult it is for others to find a common language with this person. Regularly occurring aggression, which is difficult to control, is often a sign of mental or somatic pathologies (for example, this symptom is observed with excessively high testosterone levels in men).
Calm, neutral. This mood, if emotionally colored, is insignificant, and emotions have almost no effect on human activity.
This is a good mood that allows you to work productively. It is easier for a person with a neutral mood to concentrate on something.
Playful, silly, funny. A person in this mood behaves more frivolously than usual, tends to joke, and may feel a desire to be the center of attention. It can occur during fun games with children, during or after watching a high-quality comedy.

If a person has mental illness, his emotional range is narrowed .

But this does not mean that a mentally ill person can have only one mood.

Usually, mood changes occur, but not in the same way as in people with a healthy psyche .

One mood becomes the leading one, and a person regularly returns to it, which gives him the impression that he is constantly in this particular mood.

How to cheer yourself up

It is imperative to improve our emotional mood, because it affects our affairs and physical well-being. If it seems that it is impossible to improve your mood, remember Baron Munchausen, who pulled himself out of the swamp.

Let's give some recommendations:

Make it a habit to start every morning with pleasant thoughts
. Dream about the great things that lie ahead for you. Remember that a new day is a gift from fate and an opportunity to start a new life. Don't worry about possible troubles in advance; they haven't happened.
Try to think and talk only about health and success
. The subconscious mind will remember the settings and give the command for appropriate actions. “What goes around comes around” - this proverb also applies to thoughts and attitudes. “Now is the time to make the best use of time. Today is the day to have a perfect day." These phrases should become a daily motto.
To any psychological garbage, be it an obsessive negative thought or unsolicited criticism, say: “Stop”
. Take a broom and sweep the unnecessary rubbish out of your head.
Increase self-esteem, a confident person knows how to control emotions
. He is so independent that he will not adapt to negative experiences; he wants and can live for his own pleasure. For the same reason, do not compare yourself to anyone and do not rely on the opinions of others. Only you yourself must manage your life.
Give yourself aesthetic pleasure
. Do your hair, put on your favorite dress, take out your perfume. Brew aromatic coffee with cream or pour your favorite herbal tea. If the body is happy, the soul will be happy too!
Try, if possible, to change something in the space around you
. You can rearrange the furniture, clean up the mess, put a bowl of sweets or fruit on the table. External beauty can change your mood. The pleasure of what you see will go straight to the brain, which will set the mood for positive emotions.
Physical activity is a great way to relieve the blues, you can just walk or run, jump, dance
. Sex is a powerful antidepressant.

The main thing is to accept everything you have with gratitude. Say: “thank you for having...”. When you start listing what you have (luxurious hair, big or girlish breasts, your home, a beautiful child, kind parents, a cool dog, a new mug, a flower in a pot, a friend from school, a lover or husband, etc.), You will understand what value you are and what values you hold in your hands!

Useful tips from psychology

Quotes from great philosophers and writers suggest that people have the power to control their mood. For these purposes, there are practical ways to improve it that remain relevant in the 21st century. Taking the path of uplifting your mood is a step towards success.

Dandelions under the sun - an unusual perspective

Positive recommendations:

Look at what is happening around you in a positive way, set yourself up for the good, learn to notice pleasant moments in any situation. It is enough to simply smile, even if there is no apparent reason. The production of endorphin causes a smile; through smiling you can stimulate the production of endorphin.
Physical activity or just a walk. It is useful to go outside to your favorite park to enjoy the singing of birds away from the hustle and bustle. Walking at a leisurely pace is a good alternative to working out in the gym. In both cases, hormones are produced that help improve mood.
Music is considered the golden remedy for getting rid of a bad mood. It is enough to put on a composition for the soul that brings pleasure and peace. You can write your own music, dedicate it to what inspires or pleases.
Dance ranks next to music on the list of tips. It is not necessary to arrange a presentation of your dance in a crowded place; it is enough to move around for your own pleasure at home to recharge yourself with positive energy.
Decluttering your home helps to declutter your mind. This is where a lot of activity can take place.
Creativity promotes the realization of personal potential and helps to throw out emotions. You can write a couple of lines of a poem or draw a picture. Even if it looks like a child in the first grade creates something far from a masterpiece, this is not the main thing. The important thing is that in the process inspiration may come, an unexpected solution to the problem that has become the cause of the bad mood may dawn on you.
A change of scenery is the idea of lifting your mood. If possible, you should take a vacation and go to the shores of, for example, the Dead Sea, known for its healing properties.
In terms of life, it is important not to forget about your self-esteem, to make sure that it does not drop, since low self-esteem contributes to the formation of an incorrect idea about what is happening around. This, in turn, can have a bad effect on the individual’s attitude towards the situation in personal relationships, successes and failures at work, and manifest itself in communication with loved ones.

It's easy to jump for joy when everything is fine

In a brief description, mood reflects the internal state of a person and has an external manifestation. Your mood can and should be controlled to improve your life.

How to start every morning in a good mood

If a person does not remember his dream, then he just needs to honestly answer the question - what is the reason for my bad mood. Obviously, it won’t be found, and you shouldn’t even delve into your thoughts for too long, since something bad will still be found, and we don’t need that.
If you have memories of your dream, you should convince yourself that this is just a dream, and it has nothing to do with reality, so you don’t need to prepare yourself for the worst.
Before going to bed, you should not think about solving any problems. Remember the simple proverb that the morning is wiser than the evening, and stop thinking about problems before going to bed forever.

What affects our mood - examples and arguments

Mood and emotions are inextricably linked with each other. There are three main factors that influence a person's mood.

Biological – hormones and chemical reactions. Psychological – personality and external factors. Environmental factors include illness and emotional stress.

To feel free and have a good mood, you need to reduce the load to a minimum level. There are many ways that really help you get rid of negative thoughts and set yourself up for positive emotions.

All these reasons can greatly spoil your mood, and for a long time. But if your positive attitude has completely faded, we will tell you 10 ways to lift your mood from the bottom!

Lesson summary “different moods” lesson plan (middle group) on the topic

Progress of the lesson

The teacher draws the children's attention to the sad bear and its unusual appearance (on one of the paws there is a beautiful mitten, on the other there is no mitten).

Educator. Misha, what happened, why are you so sad?

Bear. Yesterday my friends and I were having fun playing on the property: throwing snowballs, making a snowman, and I lost the mitten that my grandmother gave me.

Educator. Guys, how did we understand that Mishka was upset about something, that he was sad?

Children. In his face: his eyebrows are knitted and the corners of his lips are downturned; the voice is quiet.

Educator. Children, let's think about how Mishka feels.

Children. Mishka was upset, upset, he was sad that the mitten was lost.

If the teacher says “Sunshine!”, the children turn the emblem to the side where the cheerful sun is depicted and run to the cheerful music. If he says: “Rain!”, they turn the emblem over to the side where the sad sun is depicted and, to the sad music, they crouch, “hiding from the rain.”

Educator. Mishenka, play a game with us that will help you better understand what your mood depends on.

Didactic game “Determine the mood”

Children are given story pictures with a picture of a person without a face (you can give each child a picture or one picture per group). They must evaluate the situation depicted in the picture and complete the character's face in pictogram style.

Subjects of the pictures: cheerful children dance in a round dance near the Christmas tree, a boy with an unclear face stands to the side; a girl with an angry expression takes a toy from her friend with a blank face; a boy with a friendly expression stands away from them.

After the children have completed the task, a discussion is held: everyone explains what feeling their hero is experiencing and why.

Educator. Guys, have you ever been in such a mood? When? Why was it like this?

The children answer.

Misha, now do you understand why boys and girls have different moods?

Bear. Yes, I realized that the mood depends on how they treat each other: if they are caring and careful, the mood is good; if rude and inattentive - bad.

Educator. Children, remember and tell Mishka what needs to be done to make people feel good together.

Children. You need to not offend each other, don’t say rude words, don’t interfere with doing what you love, don’t drive children away from play, don’t take away toys, don’t quarrel.

After the lesson, the children go with Mishka to the site and help him find the mitten.
