Zusammenfassung

In diesem Kapitel wollen wir uns mit drei Grundbestandteilen der menschlichen Psyche befassen: den Emotionen bzw. Gefühlen, der Motivation und der Persönlichkeit. Im Sinne des Brückenschlags zwischen den Psycho- und Neurowissenschaften geht es dabei zum einen darum darzustellen, was aus psychologischer Sicht Emotionen und motivationale Zustände sind, wie sich hieraus Merkmale für die Persönlichkeit eines Menschen ergeben und wie diese unsere Befindlichkeit und unser Verhalten bestimmen. Zum Zweiten wollen wir fragen, in welchem Maße sich diese psychologischen Phänomene mit Strukturen und Funktionen des Gehirns in Verbindung bringen lassen.
