Emotions.market presents a unique place, where creators of experiences can present their experience designs, focussing on the emotions of the recipient (buyer). By explaining the emotions from this perspective, creators find interested buyers for their emotional experiences, making emotions market an emotional experience directory.
Like in any directory, experiences on emotions.market are classified into categories, and, emotions. Here at Emotions.market we have decided to refer to 32 emotions by Plutchik’s Wheel (below we explain why)
32 emotions of emotional experiences
Acceptance, Admiration, Aggressiveness, Amazement, Anger, Annoyance, Anticipation, Apprehension, Awe, Boredom, Contempt, Disappointment, Disgust, Distraction, Ecstasy, Fear, Grief, Interest, Joy, Loathing, Love, Optimism, Pensiveness, Rage, Remorse, Sadness, Serenity, Submission, Surprise, Terror, Trust, Vigilance.
Emotions can be classified in different ways: 6 basic emotions (happiness, sadness, fear, disgust, anger and surprise), Positive activation – negative activation (PANA) model, PAD emotional state model, Circumplex model, Vector model, and more, yet we’ve selected Psychologist Robert Plutchik Wheel of Emotions since it’s a three-dimensional model that is a hybrid of both basic-complex categories and dimensional theories.
Taking Plutchik’s 32 emotions as a base, it became possible to add emotions when you create the experience. Emotional experience creator add relevant emotions, that are the focus of experience recipient – it may be fear, sadness or grief. Alternatively, the buyer may want to experience emotions of joy, surprise and amazement – in this case they will be the focus of created experience.

An emotional experience directory could be categorized in various ways depending on the purpose and context of the directory. Here are some possible ways it could be categorized:
By type of emotion: One way to categorize an emotional experience directory is by the type of emotion being experienced. For example, the directory could be organized into categories such as joy, anger, fear, sadness, love, or surprise.
By intensity of emotion: Another way to categorize an emotional experience directory is by the intensity of the emotion being experienced. This could range from mild to intense emotions, or from low to high levels of arousal.
By source of emotion: An emotional experience directory could also be categorized by the source of the emotion. For example, emotions could be categorized based on the events, people, or situations that triggered them.
By context of emotion: Emotional experiences could also be categorized based on the context in which they occur. For instance, emotions could be classified by the social or cultural context, or by the individual’s personal experiences or traits.
By duration of emotion: Another way to categorize an emotional experience directory is by the duration of the emotion. For example, emotions could be categorized as fleeting or enduring emotions.
By positive or negative valence: Emotional experiences could be categorized based on whether they have a positive or negative valence. This could include emotions such as happiness, love, gratitude, and contentment, which are typically considered positive emotions, and emotions such as anger, sadness, anxiety, and fear, which are typically considered negative emotions.
By Response to the Emotion: Emotions could be categorized based on typical responses or behaviors associated with them. For example, categories could include coping emotions, where individuals seek comfort or problem-solving strategies, and expressive emotions, where individuals show outward signs like crying or laughing.
By Interaction Type: This categorization could focus on whether the emotion primarily affects interpersonal relationships or is experienced internally. Categories could include social emotions, like empathy or embarrassment, which depend on social interactions, and solitary emotions, like introspection or daydreaming, experienced alone.
By Complexity of Emotion: This could involve categorizing emotions based on their complexity. Basic emotions like joy and anger could be distinguished from complex emotions like guilt and pride, which might involve a blend of basic emotions and require higher cognitive processing.
By Frequency of Occurrence: Emotions could also be categorized by how frequently they occur in one’s life. Some emotions might be common and experienced daily, like contentment or mild irritation, while others might be rare, like intense grief or overwhelming joy.
By Evolutionary Purpose: This categorization could be based on the theoretical evolutionary purpose of different emotions. For example, categories could include survival emotions, such as fear and disgust, that help avoid danger, and social bonding emotions, such as love and trust, that help strengthen community ties.
By Cognitive Trigger: Emotions could be categorized based on the cognitive processes that trigger them, such as anticipatory emotions triggered by expectations about the future, like anxiety or excitement, and retrospective emotions triggered by memories, like nostalgia or regret.
