davekm Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) The orienting response causes an increase in adrenaline and stress. Repeated exposure to a stimulus can cause habituation. I wonder if tv is a repeated stimulus, and thus habituation occurs. Or is every camera change a novel stimulus, so the orienting reflex is constantly triggered.

Pincho Paxton Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Well according to Wikipedia you are to be startled to look towards a direction. I don't get that from TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
