Study Notes
- The Compensatory-Response Model explains how the body responds to various stimuli, including heart rate and drug use, with compensatory decreases.
- An increase in heart rate is a US, and a decrease in heart rate is a CR or UR, depending on the context.
- Pavlovian conditioning can lead to a conditioned response (CR) of decreased heart rate when paired with a specific tone.
- Heroin use can condition a user to associate a hypodermic needle with the drug, resulting in an increase in blood pressure (UCS) and pleasurable feelings (UCR).
- After repeated heroin use, the user may experience unpleasant withdrawal symptoms (CS) simply by encountering cues associated with drug use.
- The withdrawal symptoms are a result of the body's compensatory response to the absence of the drug and the associated cues.
- The aim of drug addiction treatment is to weaken the power of drug-related cues and extinguish cravings through exposure or removal.
- The compensatory-response model has implications for drug tolerance, where the presence of drug-related cues can elicit compensatory reactions and increase tolerance.
- The type of alcohol consumed and the environment can influence the compensatory response and the level of tolerance.
- Some seemingly fatal drug overdoses may actually result from taking the drug in the presence of cues associated with drug use, leading to a weaker or stronger compensatory response and varying levels of drug tolerance.
