A regenerative circuit is an amplifier circuit that employs positive feedback (also known as regeneration or reaction). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Some of the output of the amplifying device is applied back to its input to add to the input signal, increasing the amplification. [ 3 ]
A number of examples of positive feedback systems may be found in physiology. One example is the onset of contractions in childbirth, known as the Ferguson reflex. When a contraction occurs, the hormone oxytocin causes a nerve stimulus, which stimulates the hypothalamus to produce more oxytocin, which increases uterine contractions.
In psychology, the body receives a stimulus from the environment or internally that causes the release of hormones. Release of hormones then may cause more of those hormones to be released, causing a positive feedback loop. This cycle is also found in certain behaviour. For example, "shame loops" occur in people who blush easily.
Neuroplasticity, also known as neural plasticity or just plasticity, is the ability of neural networks in the brain to change through growth and reorganization. . Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize and rewire its neural connections, enabling it to adapt and function in ways that differ from
An example of a neural circuit is the trisynaptic circuit in the hippocampus. Another is the Papez circuit linking the hypothalamus to the limbic lobe. There are several neural circuits in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loop. These circuits carry information between the cortex, basal ganglia, thalamus, and
Marianne Lake, who runs JPMorgan's sprawling consumer franchise, offers her thoughts on the state of bank regulation, Trump's return to the White House, and the possibility of a soft landing.
Jennifer Lopez is shining bright!. On Thursday, Dec. 5, the actress and singer, 55, was honored with the Maverick Award at the 2024 IndieWire Awards at Citizen News in Los Angeles.
Design for behaviour change developed from work on design psychology (also: behavioural design) conducted by Don Norman in the 1980s. [3] Norman’s ‘psychology of everyday things’ introduced concepts from ecological psychology and human factors research to designers, such as affordances, constraint feedback and mapping. They have provided ...
