Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct sequence is James-Lange Theory, which suggests that emotions occur as a result of physiological reactions to events. This is followed by the Cannon-Bard Theory, which proposes that physiological reactions and emotions occur simultaneously but independently. Finally, the Schachter-Singer Theory, also known as the two-factor theory of emotion, posits that emotion is based on physiological arousal and cognitive labeling of that arousal.
