It's been a hectic December, but finally getting around to sharing our (@childemotionlab) new theoretical paper! We challenge assumptions around the role of arousal in emotion , highlighting ambiguity in how the construct is defined and measured.

And a quick plug for New Jersey - it is a fantastic place to live! New York is minutes away, and, on top of that, there’s beautiful beaches and hiking all less than an hour away. Also delis and bagels 🥯 - need I say more.
