Emotion Visible from Birth

Some basic emotions are present at birth, while others develop later. Emotions Present at Birth:

• Distress
• Contentment
• Interest
• Disgust (Dislike)

Newborns show dislike through facial expressions such as nose wrinkling and tongue protrusion when given unpleasant tastes. This is an innate survival response. Other Emotions Develop Later:

• Love – develops with attachment (6–8 months)
• Fear – appears around 6–9 months
• Anger – develops around 4–6 months

Final Answer: Dislike
