Intelligence émotionnellevignette|Les émotions sociales ont souvent lieux dans le cadre familial comme illustré sur cette image L'intelligence émotionnelle (IE) fait référence à la capacité d'une personne à percevoir, comprendre, gérer et exprimer ses propres émotions, ainsi que celles des autres, afin de résoudre les problèmes et réguler les comportements liés aux émotions. Bien que le terme soit apparu pour la première fois en 1964, il a gagné en popularité dans le best-seller L'Intelligence émotionnelle, écrit par le journaliste scientifique Daniel Goleman en 1995.
Emotion classificationEmotion classification, the means by which one may distinguish or contrast one emotion from another, is a contested issue in emotion research and in affective science. Researchers have approached the classification of emotions from one of two fundamental viewpoints: that emotions are discrete and fundamentally different constructs that emotions can be characterized on a dimensional basis in groupings In discrete emotion theory, all humans are thought to have an innate set of basic emotions that are cross-culturally recognizable.
ConfidenceConfidence is the state of being clear-headed: either that a hypothesis or prediction is correct, or that a chosen course of action is the best or most effective. Confidence comes from the Latin word fidere which means "to trust". In contrast, arrogance or hubris is a state of unmerited confidence—belief lacking evidence and/or a reason. Overconfidence or presumptuousness is excessive belief in success without regard for potential failure.
Psychologie positiveLa psychologie positive est une discipline de la psychologie fondée officiellement en 1998 lors du congrès annuel de l'Association américaine de psychologie par son président de l'époque, Martin E. P. Seligman ( son discours publié en 1999 dans le journal de l'APA, The American Psychologist). Cependant, la psychologie positive a des racines plus anciennes. La psychologie positive ne doit pas être confondue avec la pensée positive, une pseudo-science basée sur l'autosuggestion, faisant l'objet de nombreux best-sellers vendus à des millions d'exemplaires à travers le monde depuis les années 1950.
Experiential learningExperiential learning (ExL) is the process of learning through experience, and is more narrowly defined as "learning through reflection on doing". Hands-on learning can be a form of experiential learning, but does not necessarily involve students reflecting on their product. Experiential learning is distinct from rote or didactic learning, in which the learner plays a comparatively passive role. It is related to, but not synonymous with, other forms of active learning such as action learning, adventure learning, free-choice learning, cooperative learning, service-learning, and situated learning.
Learning spaceLearning space or learning setting refers to a physical setting for a learning environment, a place in which teaching and learning occur. The term is commonly used as a more definitive alternative to "classroom," but it may also refer to an indoor or outdoor location, either actual or virtual. Learning spaces are highly diverse in use, configuration, location, and educational institution. They support a variety of pedagogies, including quiet study, passive or active learning, kinesthetic or physical learning, vocational learning, experiential learning, and others.
Emotions and cultureAccording to some theories, emotions are universal phenomena, albeit affected by culture. Emotions are "internal phenomena that can, but do not always, make themselves observable through expression and behavior". While some emotions are universal and are experienced in similar ways as a reaction to similar events across all cultures, other emotions show considerable cultural differences in their antecedent events, the way they are experienced, the reactions they provoke and the way they are perceived by the surrounding society.
Émotion (zoologie)vignette|Un dessin d'un chat par T. W. Wood dans le livre de Charles Darwin, The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, décrit comme agissant «dans un état d'esprit affectueux» L'émotion en zoologie désigne les sentiments et émotions subjectifs éprouvés par des animaux non-humains. Les émotions peuvent être décrites comme des états conscients, subjectifs caractérisés premièrement par les expressions psychophysiologiques, les réactions biologiques, et les états mentaux.
Théorie de l'apprentissageLearning theory describes how students receive, process, and retain knowledge during learning. Cognitive, emotional, and environmental influences, as well as prior experience, all play a part in how understanding, or a worldview, is acquired or changed and knowledge and skills retained. Behaviorists look at learning as an aspect of conditioning and advocate a system of rewards and targets in education.
Positive psychology in the workplacePositive psychology is defined as a method of building on what is good and what is already working instead of attempting to stimulate improvement by focusing on the weak links in an individual, a group, or in this case, a company. Implementing positive psychology in the workplace means creating an environment that is more enjoyable, productive, and values individual employees. This also means creating a work schedule that does not lead to emotional and physical distress.
Connaissance de soiLa connaissance de soi est le savoir qu'une personne acquiert sur elle-même, en termes psychologiques ou spirituels, au cours de sa vie à l'occasion de ses expériences. La connaissance de soi-même est un ordre particulier de connaissance dans la mesure où, à son foyer même, le sujet connaissant et l'objet à connaître sont confondus, il est « juge et partie ». Cette difficulté centrale rend impérative une recherche exigeante de l'objectivité si cette connaissance doit être de quelque conséquence.
Emotion recognitionEmotion recognition is the process of identifying human emotion. People vary widely in their accuracy at recognizing the emotions of others. Use of technology to help people with emotion recognition is a relatively nascent research area. Generally, the technology works best if it uses multiple modalities in context. To date, the most work has been conducted on automating the recognition of facial expressions from video, spoken expressions from audio, written expressions from text, and physiology as measured by wearables.
