Abstract
Whilst human emotional and behaviour responses are generated via a complex mechanism, understanding this process is important for a broader range of applications that span over clinical disciplines including psychiatry and psychology, and computer science. Even though there is a large body of literature and established findings in clinical disciplines, these are under-utilised in developing more realistic computational models. This paper presents a preliminary model based on the integration of a number of established theories in clinical psychology and psychiatry through an interdisciplinary research effort.
