Mood — rather long, steady mental condition of the moderate or weak intensity shown as a positive or negative emotional background of a mental life of the individual. Unlike situational emotions and affects Н is emotional reaction not on direct consequences of those or other events, and on their value for the person in a context of its general vital plans, interests and expectations. Generated Н, in turn, are capable to influence direct emotional reactions concerning occurring events, changing accordingly a direction of thoughts, perception and behaviour of the person.


Depending on degree of sensibleness of the reasons which have caused these or those Н, it is endured or as not dismembered general emotional background ("raised", "suppressed" Н etc.) Or as accurately identified condition (boredom, grief, melancholy, fear or, on the contrary, enthusiasm, pleasure, triumph, delight etc.). Ability to supervise the Н to find and acquire ways of its conscious correction acts as the important problem of education and self-education. Causeless fluctuations Н can have a pathological origin, being caused by such properties of the individual, as the raised uneasiness, instability, an emotionality.
