Mood

Related: emotion - mood disorder - thought

Definition

A person's mood is the repertoire of emotions and thoughts experienced at a particular time. In normal functioning, moods are largely adaptive to external events.

An optimist and a pessimist evaluate a situation relatively favorably and unfavorably, respectively. This applies also to expectations. The optimist looks at the world "through rose-tinted spectacles".

Mood disorders are mental illnesses where the normal functioning of mood is disrupted. --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mood [Jul 2004]
