The Transmission of Affect

Cornell University Press (2004)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

The idea that one can 'soak up' someone else's mood or sense the tension in a room is familiar - as in 'negative energy'. This ability to borrow or share states of mind is now pathologized, as the author shows in relation to affective transfer in psychiatric clinics.
