ANECDOTE

Dishabituation and Attraction

  • If you stare at a fixed point without moving your eyes, the image fades due to neuronal habituation.
  • The neurons stop responding to unchanging stimuli.
  • Moving your eyes allows different neurons to receive different signals, bringing the color back (dishabituation).
  • Similarly, novelty in relationships rekindles attraction.
  • Seeing a partner in a new situation, like interacting with strangers, can increase attraction.
