Lövheim Cube of Emotions
Appearance

Lövheim Cube of Emotion is a theoretical model for the relationship between the
noradrenaline and emotions. The model was presented in 2012 by Swedish researcher Hugo Lövheim.[1][2][3]
Lövheim classifies emotions according to
orthogonal axes. The model is regarded as a dimensional model of emotion.[4]
The main concepts of the hypothesis are firstly that the monoamine neurotransmitters are orthogonal variables, meaning involving independent pairs of neurotransmitters; and secondly the proposed one-to-one relationship between the monoamine neurotransmitters and emotions.[5]
