Card 43 / 45: Evidence for the cognitive theory of emotion comes from experiments that illustrated misattribution of arousal. Misattribution of arousal is when:
A) People interpret physiological arousal incorrectly, which leads to an experience of emotion that would not normally occur.
B) Using arousal to control unrelated emotions.
C) When arousal comes from an external stimulus only and never an internal stimulus.
D) When someone attributes emotional responses of another person to an incorrect source.
