« Life events and adverse situations induce more negative moods than their favourable counterparts induce positive moods: we get annoyed with the broken water heater, but we do not look forward to having our hot water every morning.

« Finally, negative moods push us to a rather slow, careful, careful, attentive, meticulous "procedural" in the jargon of scientists: step by step and step by step, as if walking on a minefield! They give us the impression that the time that passes is longer.41 While positive moods lead us to a rather fast, global and intuitive approach to the surrounding world, called "heuristic": we frolic psychologically. »
