 Social Cognition, Emotions, and the Psychology of Writing
It stands to reason then that cognitive psychology would view emotion in two principal ways: as a dysfunctional response to experience that needed treatment and was therefore a clinical matter, or as part of the softer of the psychological subspecialties.
It has also been subjected to similar constraints--some reasonable (attitudes, judgments, and beliefs are considered cognitive surrogates for feelings), others inadequate (the arousal, valence, intensity, and duration of emotion are ignored because cognitive structures were not built to handle them).
Like psychology in general, up to the twentieth century, theories of the intellect were psychologies of the individual (Boring 31).

 [Jdm-society] NY times article aboutpsychologists talking to economists
Other Psychologists in the fields of motivational psychology or social psychology were using similar concepts called motives or values or valence (e.g.
Kurt Lewin, Tolman, Fishbein and Ajzen) but this work had little impact on judgment and decision researchers in psychology with the exceptions of Clyde Coombs and Lola Lopes.
Now with the new interest in emotion were are beginning to see linkages between the social psychological concepts and decision making concepts.

 Experimental Psychology Society - Meeting Programme January 2002
In Experiment 1, Charlie's line of sight was ambiguous, but the schematic mouth pattern indicated like ('smiley') or dislike ('sad') in relation to pictured objects of positive and negative valence.
When presented with the syntactic ambiguity involving the conjunction of a noun phrase to three possible attachment sites, participants were faster to read attachments to the first site than attachments to the second one, although the latter were shown to be more frequent in text corpora.
A number of researchers have proposed that sentence comprehension is frequency driven, such that the ease of understanding a syntactic construction depends on its frequency of use (e.g., Mitchell, Cuetos, Corley, and Brysbaert, 1995).

This proposed synthesis (which might perhaps be called `Affective Neural Group Selection') then gives a useful standpoint from which to investigate the relations between Affective Neuroscience and Neural Darwinism, and to consider aspects of evolutionary psychology.
These two valences must presumably be handled in a different way through the effects of their associated neurotransmitters, which may either strengthen or weaken neural connections (but not in simple overall correlation to the valence of the emotion).
In Edelman's terms, this is the value system guiding the neural Darwinism, which he relates physically to a fan of connections spreading out from a relatively small number of neurons located in the brainstem and the hypothalmus, see Edelman and Tononi 2000, p.46.
