Which theory claims that individuals label emotions based on how they are interpreted?

Schachter’s two-factor theory says emotion depends on both physical arousal and how a person interprets or labels that arousal in context. For example, a racing heart may be labeled as fear or excitement depending on the situation. Cannon-Bard and James-Lange describe different relationships between bodily responses and emotion, while relative deprivation concerns perceived unfairness or disadvantage.
