25 Questions
What is the compensatory response (b-process) associated with in the opponent-process theory of emotion?
Decrease in blood pressure
In classical conditioning, what becomes associated with the primary response to heroin?
Decrease in blood pressure
What is the conditioned stimulus (CS) in the sequence of events where an increase in heart rate leads to a compensatory decrease in heart rate?
Tone paired with shock
What is the unconditioned response (UR) to shock in classical conditioning?
Increase in heart rate
What is the aim of any possible treatment for drug addiction according to the text?
To extinguish the power of drug-related cues
What is the compensatory-response model's implication for drug tolerance?
Presence of cues associated with drug use results in greater tolerance for the drug
How does the compensatory-response model explain higher alcohol tolerance in familiar environments?
Familiar environments elicit compensatory reactions to alcohol, increasing tolerance
What may happen if an addict injects heroin in an environment different from their usual setting?
They may experience an increased reaction to the drug
What is one implication of consuming alcohol in an 'alcohol expected' environment?
Better performance on cognitive and motor functioning measures
What is the aim of modern treatments for drug addiction according to the text?
Removal of drug-related cues to allow extinction of cravings
What is one implication of consuming an unusual drink compared to a familiar drink?
Significantly more intoxication following consumption of an unusual drink
How does staying away from alcohol-related cues affect one's level of intoxication according to the text?
Compensatory reactions might be reduced, leading to more intoxication outside the cue environment
What is suggested about fatalities seemingly due to drug overdose according to the text?
They may result from taking the drug in a setting not associated with drug use, leading to weaker compensatory response and lower tolerance.
What is suggested about driving after consuming alcohol in familiar versus unfamiliar environments?
Driving after consuming alcohol in an unfamiliar environment may result in more impairment than in a familiar environment.
In the opponent-process theory of emotion, what is the compensatory response (b-process) associated with?
Primary response to a stimulus
What is the unconditioned response (UR) to shock in classical conditioning?
Increase in heart rate
What becomes associated with the primary response to heroin in classical conditioning?
Heroin-related cues, such as being in a certain room
What is the conditioned stimulus (CS) in the sequence of events where an increase in heart rate leads to a compensatory decrease in heart rate?
A tone that is repeatedly paired with shock
What is the aim of any possible treatment for drug addiction?
To weaken the withdrawal symptoms
How does the compensatory-response model explain higher alcohol tolerance in familiar environments?
Familiar environments elicit compensatory reactions to alcohol
What is one implication of consuming an unusual drink compared to a familiar drink?
Unusual drinks trigger a weaker compensatory response to alcohol
What may happen if an addict injects heroin in an environment different from their usual setting?
The addict will likely experience withdrawal symptoms
What is suggested about fatalities seemingly due to drug overdose according to the text?
They are actually due to taking drugs in unfamiliar environments
In classical conditioning, what becomes associated with the primary response to heroin?
'Withdrawal symptoms'
What is the unconditioned response (UR) to shock in classical conditioning?
Pain or discomfort
