**Physiological affect** is a pronounced emotional process that lasts for some time, usually arising in response to a certain situation, which is not accompanied by darkness, lack of clarity of thought and the ability to control one’s actions. In a normal state, healthy people can experience affects, such as joy or sadness. But when physiological affect occurs, a person may be in an excited and restless state, display violence and aggressive behavior, and experience a surge of energy and desire to act. Research conducted by scientists indicates a connection between affective states and biological processes, such as hormone production, nervous system function, and chemical reactions in the brain. For some people, the affect may be more intense and lasting than for others. Such conditions can manifest themselves on a physical level, causing rapid heartbeat, high blood pressure and muscle tension. They can also affect a person's mood and behavior, causing them to act unpredictably, aggressively, or become overly emotional. Treatment of affective states involves the use of medications and psychotherapy. You should see a doctor if you notice signs of affect and suspect that it may be negatively affecting your health and relationships with others.
