The Structure in Persons' Implicit Taxonomy of Emotions.

Russell, James A.; Steiger, James H.

Journal of Research in Personality, v16 n4 p447-69 Dec 1982

The Profile of Mood States lists emotional categories. It was studied for actual interrelationships among its categories. An examination of intraindividual relationships showed that emotion categories are systematically interrelated and can be accounted for by three bipolar dimensions: pleasure-displeasure, arousal-sleepiness, and dominance-submissiveness.
