James-Lange Theory !

        In psychology there are many different theories that describes psychology, but I'm going to focus on the James-Lange Theory. The James-Lange theory was created by two psychologist by the name of William James and Carl Lange. This theory clearly states that emotions are caused by our interpretation of bodily actions. According to this theory your emotional reaction depends on how you interpret those reactions physically. For instance , if you were to see a snake you instantly become frighted. This theory explains that you will interpret your own emotions and determine that you are afraid.
