[edit] Notes & Queries
Suprise, what does it meen? Being 'surprised' is an emotion, and being surpised isn't always good. You can get a 'good' surprise, for example a surprise birthday party and you can get a bad surprise that you might not like. For example a gigantic spider on your head. Both of these surpises make you react differently and therefore make you feel differently, depending on the surprise.
JA: There is a "tension/relief" theory in aesthetics which says that the pleasant affect is due to a quick release from the primary unpleasant affect of shock, tension, or uncertainty. Jon Awbrey 05:56, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
