Editing Learning emotions (section)

=== Emotions as suppressors of learning ===
This hypothesis postulates that emotions impair information processing by taking away attention from information to be learned. <ref>Uzun, A. M., & Yıldırım, Z. (2018). Exploring the effect of using different levels of emotional design features in multimedia science learning. Computers & Education, 119, 112–128.</ref> For example, if a learner has emotions that affect their perception of the task, it places additional demand on the working memory while learning. This interferes with the processing of essential information. <ref>Sweller, J., Ayres, P., & Kalyuga, S. (2011). Cognitive load theory. New York: Springer.</ref>
