Max had ]VMax(el) relatively close to the neutral point for the emotional guage el where e i- is the emotion anger. DMax(el) was low, giving a gradual decay rate for the anger emotion. This led to Max behaving as if he had a relatively aggressive personality. For the emotional guage e~ measuring fear, NMax(e2) was relatively far from the neutral point and DMa,(e2) was high. Fido, on the other hand became easily fearful with NFido(e2) close to the neutral point, but also lost his fear quite quickly with DFido(e2) being quite high.
