Abstract

This article reveals the differences and significance of pathological, physiological, simple, cumulative and abnormal affect; identifies the features of such states as emotional stress, frustration, emotional arousal and emotional tension. It’s formed conclusions about emotional states and their implications for unification of criminal legislation, using an interdisciplinary approach. The article proposes its own definition of emotional state, which is aimed at taking into account the individual perception of traumatic situation by the perpetrator. The concept of “state of intense emotional disturbance” should be replaced by the phrase of “emotional state caused by traumatic influence”, which in its meaning is psychological, criminal and forensic content.
