Abstract

Emotions are usually theorized as stand alone phenomena. But many emotions co-occur. We often feel ambivalent about things, for example. Certain types of emotions tend to come together, such as empathic distress and sympathy or guilt and shame. In this paper, I examine such co-occurrences with a view to their consequence for how we think of emotions.
