Resumen

A la hora de establecer relaciones entre Motivación y Emoción múltiples son las opciones que se nos presenta en la literatura especializada, entre ellas la inclusión de otros procesos, como por ejemplo la Cognición. Así, en ocasiones se ha sugerido que una puede ser precursora de la otra, e igualmente encontramos teorías más actuales que las consideran inseparables para poder entender la conducta de los organismos superiores, y que dependiendo de la situación situarían a una como precursora de la otra. Con el presente artículo pretendemos realizar una revisión teórica respecto a la interrelación que existe entre estos tres procesos. Posteriormente, tomando la indefensión aprendida como paradigma de trabajo se ofrece una revisión conceptual de cómo cognición y motivación se relacionan. Podemos considerar que la cognición es el proceso previo a la conducta motivada, y que a su vez forma parte del proceso motivacional. Igualmente podemos observar que aunque exista cognición, no necesariamente tiene que darse la conducta motivada, sería la diferencia entre querer y desear. Y que las expectativas y creencias aprendidas, que también son cogniciones, implican y modulan la conducta motivada del sujeto, además de dotarla de un tono emocional concreto. En la última parte del texto se realiza una revisión a la relación Emoción-Cognición, y más concretamente a la bidireccionalidad de esta relación. Centrándonos en primera instancia en la relación Cognición-Afecto, y de cómo el procesamiento cognitivo se encuentra en la base de las experiencias afectivas en general. Y por último observando la relación inversa Afecto-Cognición, observando como la influencia del estado afectivo influye en el funcionamiento cognitivo; memoria, atención, etc.
