Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The results of this paper establish the possibility of successful mathematical modeling of the highly complex phenomenon representing human emotions.

  2. 2.

    The dependences obtained in this study describe with a fairly good fit human adaptation to various emotiogenic irritants.

  3. 3.

    The development of the proposed approach based on the model of information processing by human memory previously proposed by the authors is promising for application in other important cases.
