JUSTEL, Nadia; RUETTI, Eliana e MUSTACA, Alba. THEORETICAL APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF CONSUMMATORY SUCCESSIVE NEGATIVE CONTRAST. Suma Psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.17, n.2, pp.111-123. ISSN 0121-4381.
Frustration is an emotional state that occurs before the reduction or omission of the quantity or quality of an expected appetitive reward in the presence of an expectation of rewards of greater magnitude. Historically, several theories attempt to account for the mechanisms or processes involved in the frustration's effect. Flaherty (1982) realized one of the first reviews of current frustration's theories. In recent studies, some theories were dismissed while others were strengthened. Most were designed to emphasize the emotional or cognitive factors involved in this phenomenon, while others appeared to account for other components which In turn might be involved in the response of frustration. This paper refers to some of the different current theories that explain the phenomenon of successive negative contrast. First, emotional theories are explained, then the cognitive ones, and finally those that try to cover both types of mechanisms.
