Talk:Valence (psychology)

Hedonic Tone
There really needs to be an article on Hedonic tone. It fits in with Behavioral Economics. And the Daniel Kahneman article needs expanding. DCDuring 22:37, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Overlap
This article seems to overlap pretty heavily with the Valence effect article. I think it makes sense to merge them, but don't know the Wikipedia process for making that a "formal" suggestion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Emergentchaos (talk • contribs) 23:44, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Page name not great
The lack of the word "emotion" in the page title is not helpful for people who don't already know what this is about. "Valence" is a terribly abstract word that could apply to just about anything.

Are either of these better?

Lacanian valence
We should add a few lines about Lacanian valence informed by jouissance. If anyone is able to find reliable sources about this, please ping me.Zigzig20s (talk) 21:20, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
