Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory of Personality Questionnaires: Structural survey with recommendations (2016, background): “The most recent version of RST (Corr & McNaughton, 2012; Gray & McNaughton, 2000; McNaughton & Corr, 2004, 2008) postulates three major neuropsychological systems (RST-3): thefight-flight-freeze system (FFFS) is activated by all forms of aversive stimuli (including frustrating nonreward); the…”
The neuropsychology of fear and anxiety: A foundation for Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory. (2008, background): “This is one crucial difference (Table 2.1) between Gray’s original (1976, 1982) formulation and the revised theory (Gray and McNaughton 2000; McNaughton and Corr 2004).”
Conservative When Crowded: Social Crowding and Consumer Choice (2013, background): “The activation of this defense system manifests as specific emotional states such as fear and anxiety (Gray and McNaughton 2000; McNaughton and Corr 2004).”
Defensive reactions to health-promoting information: an overview and implications for future research (2013, background): “Dangerous situations oftentimes require swift responses and therefore an affective system has evolved that quickly focuses attention towards threats (Lang et al, 2000 ) and triggers appropriate reactions (McNaughton & Corr, 2004 ).”
Reinforcement learning: the good, the bad and the ugly. (2008, background): “The consummatory Pavlovian response to immediate threat is panic, probably mediated by the peri-acqueductal gray [135,91]; such responses have themselves recently been observed in an imaging study which involved a virtual threatening ‘chase’ [136].”
Disentangling the Roles of Approach, Activation and Valence in Instrumental and Pavlovian Responding (2011, background): “Nevertheless, animal models, genetic studies and pharmacological manipulations suggest that serotonin plays a crucial role in the inhibition of active behaviours by aversive expectations [25,47,48,50,73,76– 78].”
Hotspot crowding and over-tourism: Antecedents of destination attractiveness (2019, result): “Therefore, it is plausible that the Bergen centre was on the rising side of the inverted U-shaped crowding curve, while Stavanger, Flåm, and Geiranger were on the descending side (Mehta, 2013). When exceeding its optimum point, crowding turns from positive to negative, and this turning point was sur”
Eye tracking of attention in the affective disorders: a meta-analytic review and synthesis. (2012, background): “Critically, saccadic EMs appear to escape the general response slowing or “freezing” (McNaughton & Corr, 2004) caused by threatening stimuli, which may confound manual RT measures, particularly the emotional Stroop (see Algom, Chajut, & Lev, 2004) and spatial cueing task (see Mogg, Holmes, Garner,…”
The ecology of human fear: survival optimization and the nervous system (2015, methodology): “McNaughton and Corr (2004) have also proposed a set of neural circuits associated with defensive approach and defensive avoidance (Figures 2C,D).”
What is reinforcement sensitivity? Neuroscience paradigms for approach‐avoidance process theories of personality (2008, background): “22: 359–384 (2008) DOI: 10.1002/per stimuli, the emotional consequence of which is fear, and the motivational consequence of which is defensive avoidance (McNaughton & Corr, 2004).”
Behavioral biology of marine mammal deterrents: A review and prospectus (2013, background): “Fear and anxiety are reliant upon two separate neurochemical pathways (McNaughton and Corr, 2004).”
Motivation and Personality: A Neuropsychological Perspective (2013, methodology): “The FFFS, BIS, and BAS (see Figure 1) are described in detail by Gray and McNaughton (2000) and summarized by McNaughton and Corr (2004, 2008), but the PS has been less well elaborated.”
