Orienting Response Reinstatement and Dishabituation: the Effects of Substituting

This prediction was tested in two experiments, which used sequences of nonsignificant verbal and pictorial compound stimuli. A test stimulus (TS) was presented after 9 repetitions of a standard stimulus (SS), followed by 2 additional repetitions of SS. TS was created by either substituting 0, 1, or 2 stimulus components of SS (Experiment 1), or by either adding or deleting 0, 1, or 2 components of SS (Experiment 2). The dependent measure was the electrodermal component of the OR to both TS (OR reinstatement) and SS that immediately followed TS (dishabituation). -
The Reality of Phantom Limbsl
The Reality of Phantom Limbsl Joel Katzz This paper ualuates the joint influence of peripheral neurophysiological factors and higher-order cognitive and ffictive processes in trigeing or madulating a variety of phantow limb uperiences, includ.ing pain. Part I outlines one way in whbh the sympathetic nervaw rystem may influence phantom limb pain- A model involving a sympathetic-efferent somatic-afferent cycle is presented to oeplain fluctuations in the intensity of sewations refer"d to the phantorn limb. In part 2, the model b stended to explain the puzzling futding that only after amputatinn are thaughts and feelings capable of evaking referred sensati.ons to the (phantom) limb. While phantom pains and other sensations frequently are tigered by though* and feelings, there is no evidence that the painful or painl.ess phantom limb is a symptom of a psychological disorder. In part 3, the concept of a pain "memory" is introduced and descibed with examples. The data show that pain expeienced pior to amputation rnay percist in the form of a memory refened to the phantom limb causing continued suffeing and distress. It is argued that two independent and potentially dissocinble memoty components underlie the unified expertence of a pain memory. This conceptualization is evaluated in the context of the suryical arena, raising the possibility that under ceriain conditions postoperative pain may, in part, reflect the persistent central neural memory trace Ieft by the surgical procedure. It is concluded that the experience of a phantom lirnb is determined by a comple,r interection of inputs fram the periphery and widespreael reginns af the brain subserving sensoty, cognitive, and afective processes. -
