Dimensional approach adopts the psychological constructionist tradition, but has been criticized for assuming the "emotions can be reduced to pleasant and unpleasant states or that affect alone provides a sufficient explanation for emotion".[3] Examples of the dimensional approach measures include the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) and the Self-Assessment Manikin. The State-Trait Emotion Measure (STEM) is a more recently constructed measure that is explicitly framed to assess emotions at the workplace.[13][14] The STEM assesses stable (trait) and current emotions (state) for five positive and five negative emotions: affection, anger, anxiety, attentiveness/energy, contentment, envy, guilt/shame, joy, pride, and sadness. These items can be divided into 12 categories that measure 12 fundamental emotions, which include interest, enjoyment, surprise, sadness, anger, disgust, contempt, fear, guilt, shame, shyness, and hostility inward. ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-3653.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-3653.txt
