Quick Question – Who’s Driving?
August 02, 2024
ARSA Executive Director Sarah MacLeod recently saw Pixar’s Inside Out, so the association’s team has been reflecting on how its core emotions – Joy, Sadness, Anger, Disgust, and Fear – drive its actions.
From Psychology Today:
“What’s really powerful about this film is how accurate it is to cognitive, developmental, and clinical psychology. The 5 emotions used in this film are in fact 5 of the 6 scientifically validated universal emotions (the 6th one being surprise)…. What messages does this movie send to its viewers? Many, actually, but perhaps the most important one is this – our emotions are all important, every single one of them. They all serve an important function and we cannot selectively feel some but not others.”
Since personal reflection is a vital element of human factors and safety management, ARSA offers this month’s “quick question” as an opportunity for self-reflection. Which of the five emotions most often drives you?
