In order to identify factors that were based on observations of many individuals, Eysenk set four criteria to detect a factor. Those were psychometric evidence, heritability, it must make sense and social relevance (Feist & Feist, 2009).

It further motivates individuals to take actions and cope in order to reduce the feeling of distress and anxiety. Thus, moderate level of anxiety may be good in doing tasks efficiently. In conclusion, although there are many theories that could explain the generation of emotion, SPAARS model provides a more holistic explanation of generation, transition of emotions as well as emotion coupling.
