Affect Dynamics

All else being equal, when emotional inertia/autoregression increases, the net variability increases. Thus, it is some unintuitive combination of emotional sensitivity/reactivity (innovation variance) and resistance to change (autoregression). 7/10 https:/

The so-called net-variability index (i.e., standard deviation/variance), typically used as an index of emotional variability, can be written as a function of the first-order autoregressive effect (aka emotional inertia) and the innovation variance 3/10 htt
