Sex Differences in Sensitivity to, and Salience of, Fear-Provoking Stimuli
Hitherto this point, discussion has focussed on components of the fear system that respond to the presence of threat as opposed to how we detect and... -
Tooth Sensitivity Device—Detection and Diagnosing of Sensitivity in the Dental Pulp
Sensitive teeth are typically worn tooth enamel or exposed tooth roots. The main affected part in the teeth that is prone to sensitivity is a pulp... -
Sensitivity to intrinsic rewards is domain general and related to mental health
Humans frequently engage in intrinsically rewarding activities (for example, consuming art, reading). Despite such activities seeming diverse, we...
