"Initial-" and "change-orienting reactions": an analysis based on visual single-trial event-related potentials.

TL;DR: It was concluded that the I-OR is marked by the N1, whereas the C-OR coincides with the P2-N2, and single-trial event-related potentials (ERPs) to visual stimuli are estimated.

Effects of task relevance on habituation of visual single-trial ERPs and the skin conductance orienting response

TL;DR: It is concluded that theprocessing of relevant stimuli differs structurally from the processing of neutral stimuli; this difference may be observed even at a latency of 100 ms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emotional Picture Perception: Repetition Effects in Free-Viewing and during an Explicit Categorization Task.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the affective modulation of the LPP reflects an automatic engagement of cortico-limbic motivational systems, which continues to take place regardless of stimulus novelty and task context.

The Orienting Response: Index of Attention

TL;DR: The orienting response is a fundamental element of classical conditioning and signals an observable attentional reaction before learning, which has considerable relevance to the study of attention.

The price of learning good from bad: motivational costs and benefits in cognition and affect

S.A.A. Massar
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the influence of mental fatigue as a result of prolonged periods of cognitive performance on cognitive processing and motivational responses to reward and loss, and how stimuli that are predictive of negative (aversive noise, monetary loss) and positive events (monetary gain) exert an influence on spatial attention.

Nonparametric statistics for the behavioral sciences

Sidney Siegel
TL;DR: This is the revision of the classic text in the field, adding two new chapters and thoroughly updating all others as discussed by the authors, and the original structure is retained, and the book continues to serve as a combined text/reference.

Multiple measures of the orienting reaction and their dissociation after amygdalectomy in monkeys

TL;DR: What other measures of orienting could be classified with the GSR as indicators of registration were discovered to discover.

Orienting reflexes and significance: a reply to O'Gorman.

TL;DR: A psychophysiological theory of ORs is presented within the framework of methodological behaviorism and provides a physiological basis for stimulus significance and permits an integration of diverse phenomena involving ORs, including classical and verbal conditioning.
