Scientists Discover 27 Different Emotions
People are dealing with a variety of emotions all the time, but while scientists used to believe there were only six real emotions - happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, fear and disgust â a new study has discovered that folks actually feel as much as 27 distinct emotions.
A study out of University of California, Berkeley involved more than 800 participants who were asked to rank their emotions after watching 30 short video clips, featuring scenes like births, babies, weddings, proposals, death, suffering, risky stunts, sexual acts, and more. In the end, the data pointed to 27 distinct emotions. They include:
- Admiration
- Adoration
- Aesthetic Appreciation
- Amusement
- Anxiety
- Awe
- Awkwardness
- Boredom
- Calmness
- Confusion
- Craving
- Disgust
- Empathetic pain
- Entrancement
- Envy
- Excitement
- Fear
- Horror
- Interest
- Joy
- Nostalgia
- Romance
- Sadness
- Satisfaction
- Sexual desire
- Sympathy
- Triumph
And if you can see a bit of an overlap with these emotions thatâs because there are. The researchers note there are âsmooth gradients of emotionâ between some of them, adding that, "everything is interconnected.â

The Secret Codes Used By Disney Employees
Disney may be the happiest place on earth, but letâs face it, some visitors can be total nightmares. Well, no matter how rude a guest is, Disney staffers arenât allowed to use negative language so theyâve come up with some code words in order to talk about those awful people without them ever knowing theyâve been disrespected.
In case you missed it, a new report has uncovered those secret code words used by Disney employees and they are pretty hysterical. For example, if you ever hear a staffer calling you a âtreasured guestâ you shouldnât feel good about yourself, because thatâs their code word for someone whoâs rude.
And thatâs not all, if someone has vomited in the park, which isnât all that uncommon, staffers call it a âprotein spill,â and when they take place itâs called a âCode Vâ situation.â When kids pee in the pool, also probably pretty common, itâs called a âCode Winnieâ and when you hear the term âwhite powder alertâ you may want to run. Seems thatâs the code to let a staff member know when someone has spread a loved ones ashes on a ride or somewhere else in the park.
