What is the difference between stimulus discrimination and stimulus generalization?
Stimulus discrimination refers to the ability to differentiate between similar stimuli and respond differently to each one. This means that an individual can identify specific differences between stimuli and respond accordingly. On the other hand, stimulus generalization occurs when a response that was originally elicited by a specific stimulus is also produced in the presence of a similar, but not identical, stimulus. In this case, the individual is unable to distinguish between the original stimulus and the similar one, leading to a generalized response.

What is a stimulus?
A stimulus is any event or situation that evokes a response from an organism. It can be a physical object, sound, smell, taste, or any other form of input that triggers a reaction. In psychology, a stimulus is used to study how organisms perceive and respond to their environment. It plays a crucial role in understanding behavior and learning processes.
-
Is tasting a stimulus?
Tasting is not considered a stimulus itself, but rather a sensory experience that occurs in response to a stimulus. The stimulus for tasting is the food or drink that comes into contact with taste receptors on the tongue, which then send signals to the brain to interpret the taste. Therefore, tasting is the result of a stimulus, rather than being the stimulus itself.
-
What is an inadequate stimulus?
An inadequate stimulus is a stimulus that is not strong enough to evoke a response from a particular receptor or system. This means that the stimulus does not have the necessary intensity or specificity to trigger a reaction. In the context of sensory systems, an inadequate stimulus may not be able to activate the relevant sensory receptors or nerve pathways to generate a response. This concept is important in understanding how different stimuli can elicit different responses in biological systems.

Resisting the News : Engaged Audiences, Alternative Media, and Popular Critique of Journalism
Resisting the News brings together unique insights from activists and alternative-media users to offer a distinctive perspective on the problems of journalism today—and how to fix them. Using critical-cultural theory and, in particular, the conceptual frameworks of ritual communication and interpretive communities, this book examines how audiences filter their interpretations of mainstream news through the prisms of their identities and experiences with alternative media and political protest.Jennifer Rauch gives voice to alternative-media audiences and illuminates the cultural resources, values, assumptions, critical skills, and discursive strategies through which they make sense of their news environments.Drawing on a 15-year research project, Rauch employs a variety of qualitative, quantitative, and quasi-ethnographic methods, including focus groups, media-use diaries, close-ended surveys, and open-ended questions, to paint a layered portrait of liberal and conservative critiques of journalism. Shedding new light on popular theories about "how news works" and about "mass" audiences, this book will be useful to students, scholars, and teachers of political communication, journalism studies, media studies, and critical-cultural studies.

Austerity vs Stimulus : The Political Future of Economic Recovery
This timely book debates the economic and political logic of the austerity policies that have been implemented in the UK and in the Eurozone since 2010 and asks whether there is any alternative for these countries in the years ahead.The work reconsiders the austerity versus stimulus debate through the voices of those who proposed the successful idea of expansionary austerity and those who opposed it.The editors have brought together a collection of articles written by some of the most notable figures in the discipline, including the likes of Alberto Alesina, Ken Rogoff, Tim Besley, David Graeber, Vince Cable, and Paul Krugman.The book also features the debate between Niall Ferguson and Robert Skidelsky.These leading thinkers unveil a world where economists are far from agreeing on economic policy, and where politics often dominates the discussion.The question of whether the British government should have opted for austerity runs through the book, as well as how sustained economicrecovery should be encouraged in the future.Scholars, students and members of the general public with an interest in the financial crisis and its lingering aftermath will find this work invaluable.

Pop Culture, Politics, and the News : Entertainment Journalism in the Polarized Media Landscape
In Pop Culture, Politics, and the News, Joel Penney explores how pop culture news has taken on an important role in contemporary political discourse.Through coverage of topics like Hollywood diversity, celebrity controversy, and "cancel culture" backlash, entertainment journalism has emerged as a key source of political information and commentary, providing audiences with an accessible lens into some of the most hot-button issues of our time.Yet due to the "clickbait" economics of the polarized digital news business, the quality of entertainment journalism is often compromised, and consequently, people view pop culture coverage as "soft news" with little substance or public value.Very little is known about how this journalism is produced and consumed as a component of the digital news ecosystem.Moreover, we lack a measured sense of its potential impact on the political interests and knowledge of its audiences, the politics of the entertainment industry it covers, and the shape of public debate more broadly.Drawing on interviews with entertainment journalists and testimonials from news audiences who share these stories on social media, Joel Penney argues for the importance of reframing our understanding of impactful journalism and persuasive political communication when culture and identity have moved thoroughly to the center of U.S. public discourse. Moreover, Penney examines how audiences engage with this highly accessible and emotionally resonant form of journalism and use it as a resource for political expression and discussion, raising important questions about how it can serve as a bridge to public issue engagement as well as a potential distraction from on-the-ground political concerns.As a cutting-edge, data-rich analysis of the blurring boundaries between entertainment, politics, social media activism, and partisan journalism, Pop Culture, Politics, and the News makes a major contribution to public scholarship on the shifting digital information landscape.

What are economic stimulus measures?
Economic stimulus measures are policies implemented by governments to boost economic activity during times of recession or slow growth. These measures can include tax cuts, increased government spending on infrastructure projects, and monetary policies such as lowering interest rates. The goal of these measures is to stimulate consumer spending, business investment, and overall economic growth. By injecting money into the economy, these measures aim to create jobs, increase demand for goods and services, and ultimately improve the overall economic outlook.

What is an adequate stimulus?
An adequate stimulus is the specific form of energy or signal that a sensory receptor is designed to detect and respond to. It is the type of input that a sensory receptor is most sensitive to and will produce the strongest response from. For example, the adequate stimulus for the visual system is light, for the auditory system is sound waves, and for the olfactory system is specific chemical molecules. The concept of adequate stimulus helps to explain how different sensory systems are specialized to detect and process specific types of information from the environment.
-
What is the stimulus-response schema?
The stimulus-response schema is a psychological concept that explains how individuals react to external stimuli. It suggests that when a person encounters a stimulus, it triggers a response or behavior from them. This schema is often used to understand and predict human behavior in various situations by analyzing the relationship between the stimulus and the corresponding response. It is a fundamental concept in behavioral psychology and helps to explain how individuals learn and adapt to their environment.
-
What is a non-adequate stimulus?
A non-adequate stimulus is a stimulus that does not elicit a response from a particular sensory receptor or system. In other words, it is a stimulus that does not match the specific type of input that a sensory receptor is designed to detect and respond to. For example, shining a light on the skin would not elicit a response from a taste receptor, making light a non-adequate stimulus for taste perception.
