习惯化被定义为对重复刺激的反应能力下降。经过80多年的研究，研究人员对9-10种行为规律或习惯化参数的存在达成了持久的共识。然而，在解释这些事实的最佳方法上，没有类似的共识。在本文中，我们证明了刺激加工的有时对手加工(SOP)模型准确地描述了所有这些规律。该模型由艾伦·瓦格纳提出，是对启动理论的定量阐述，该理论认为，刺激的处理过程以及刺激反应的能力，与刺激在短期记忆中预先呈现的程度成反比。通过计算机模拟，我们证明了所有涉及会话内效应或短期习惯化的事实都可能是最近呈现的刺激启动(自我生成启动)的结果。涉及会话间歇效应或长期习惯化的特征是通过相关的语境从记忆中提取刺激的表征(关联产生的启动)。
Habituation is defined as a decline in responding to a repeated stimulus. After more than 80 years of research, there is an enduring consensus among researchers on the existence of 9-10 behavioral regularities or parameters of habituation. There is no similar agreement, however, on the best approach to explain these facts. In this paper, we demonstrate that the Sometimes Opponent Processes (SOP) model of stimulus processing accurately describes all of these regularities. This model was proposed by Allan Wagner as a quantitative elaboration of priming theory, which states that the processing of a stimulus, and therefore its capacity to provoke its response, depends inversely on the degree to which the stimulus is pre-represented in short-term memory. Using computer simulations, we show that all the facts involving within-session effects or short-term habituation might be the result of priming from recent presentations of the stimulus (self-generated priming). The characteristics involving between-sessions effects or long-term habituation would result from the retrieval of the representation of the stimulus from memory by the associated context (associatively generated priming).
