The Cannon Bard Theory Suggested That Cognitive Aspects of Affect

The Cannon Bard theory suggested that cognitive aspects of affect could be experienced even when individuals could not sense any physiological changes.
They based this conclusion on studies that involved…

A) patients that were given anaesthetics were still able to sense feelings although their autonomic nervous system was numbed.
B) injecting adrenaline into participants, and this did not increase their emotional responses to stimuli.
C) rats that were enveloped in ice water (i.e. they were numb) still showed a normal fear response.
D) reports that humans with spinal chord transections experienced no change in their ability to sense feelings.
