The role of mood in quantitative and qualitative aspects of performance: Single or multiple mechanisms?

Article Abstract:

Research suggests that mood may be working through different process simultaneously, although other research suggests a single process. New research has hypothesized that if a single, mood-as-information process represents mood effects on creativity and quantitative performance, then all mood effects would be eliminated if a cue is given that mood is irrelevant to the task.
