Abstract

Experience is an activity that arouses emotions and generates meanings based on vivid sensation and profound compreh ension. It is emotional, meaningful, and personal, playing a key role in the course of forming and developing one’s qualities. The psychological process of experience generation consists of such links as sensing things, arousing emotions, promoting comprehension and association, generating insights and meanings, and deepening emotional responses. Undergoing things personally by means of direct sensation, taking part in activities, and living life are the most important preconditions of experience generation. Emotional influence, situational edification, and arts edification are external factors that induce experience generation.
