A study found that there are more distinct emotions than many realize. (Photo:

For those of you Philadelphia sports fans who think that there are only two emotions (disgust and
disappointment), a study just published in the Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences says
otherwise. In fact, Alan S. Cowen and Dacher Keltner, PhD from the University of California,
Berkeley, identified 27 distinct categories of emotions. And here they are, by alphabetical order
and not desirability or importance:

Admiration

Adoration
Aesthetic Appreciation

Amusement

Anxiety

Awe

Awkwardness

Boredom

Calmness

Confusion

Craving

Disgust

Empathetic pain

Entrancement

Envy

Excitement

Fear

Horror

Interest

Joy

Nostalgia

Romance

Sadness

Satisfaction

Sexual desire
 Sympathy

Triumph

If this entire list sounds like a recent evening with your significant other, you may want to re-
assess the stability of your relationship. Of note, hungry and constipated are not two of the 27
emotions listed.

For the study, Cowen and Keltner collected 2,185 short videos that aimed to elicit particular
emotions such as five to ten second clips of a pig falling out of a moving truck, a cat giving a dog
a massage, an attacking lion, a man with a spider in his mouth, Bernie Sanders (without a spider
in his mouth), a mushroom cloud, sexual acts, and an awkward handshake. They then showed
samples of these videos to different study participants on the Amazon Mechanical Turk and then
asked them to report their resulting emotional experiences via either free form responses (for a
total of 27,660 responses), rating how the video made them feel among 34 emotion categories of
interest (for a total of 19,710 ratings), or on scales of 1 to 9 across different dimensions such as
positive versus negative or excitement versus calmness (for a total of 276,696 responses). Using
all of these responses, they then tried to determine what types of emotional categories were truly
distinct and necessary to represent different responses and which were actually synonyms or
duplicates.

In the end, they came up with the 27-item list above. Note that this doesn't mean a given event
will only evoke a single emotion. For example, hearing the song "All About that Bass" may
result in a combination of different percentages of nostalgia, disgust, and horror. Think of the
categories as different ingredients that you use in the emotional Soufflé that is your reaction to an
event or situation.

The researchers produced an interactive map that shows different videos and how each of the
categories may contribute to the reaction.

Are you feeling confusion or anxiety about what to do with this list? Well, if you are not
completely introspective, empathetic, or socially aware, perhaps you can carry this list around
with you as a reference (e.g., "the look that you are about to vomit may suggest that you are
feeling disgust over my bringing tarantulas to the pot luck"). Additionally, you may notice that
some things commonly considered as emotions are missing from the list such as anger. In many
cases, ostensible reactions may obscure what you or others are really feeling. For example, anger
may really be a manifestation of fear. When you end a relationship (professional or personal) the
other person may get angry because he or she fears the consequences of losing you. Similarly, a
person may be angry about being asked a question that he or she cannot answer, because that
person fears looking stupid. Other notable omissions from this list are hate and resentment.
Again these can often be traced back to other emotions. Bullies and bigots can often be very
fearful or envious.

Not understanding your and others' real emotions can lead to miscommunication and
mistakes. (Photo:... [+]
A big part of management, leadership, sales, and navigating relationships is being able to
understand what people are really feeling. It is striking how often a single concession or action
could have averted so much conflict and wasted time, effort, and resources.

In general, people can be very bad at recognizing the emotions of themselves and others, which
in turn leads to a lot of misunderstandings and missteps. In some ways, life and professional and
personal interactions would be a lot easier if everyone had emotional traffic lights on their
foreheads.
