We mathematically demonstrated that sensory surprisal represents free energy, and it is equivalent to a summation of information gain (or information from novelty) and perceived complexity (or information from complexity), which are the collative variables forming the arousal potential.

To explain the effect of arousal on emotional valence, we propose a novel mathematical framework of arousal potential variations in the dual process of human cognition: automatic and controlled.

The proposed mathematical framework unifies the free energy principle of the brain and the arousal potential theory to explain the Wundt curve as an information gain function and suggests an ideal inquiry process driven by epistemic emotions.
