What is stimulus - response in human psychology?

Stimulus Response Theory is a concept in psychology that refers to the belief that behavior manifests as a result of the interplay between stimulus and response. ... In other words, behavior cannot exist without a stimulus of some sort, at least from this perspective.The term response in psychology refers to a behavior that was the result of a stimulus.

Explanation:

1.A stimulus is a change in the environment (either external or internal) that is detected by a receptor.

2.Receptors transform environmental stimuli into electrical nerve impulses.

3.These impulses are then transmitted via neurons to the central nervous system where decision-making occurs

some example:

An animal is cold,so it moves into the sun. Response: How the organism reacts to a stimulus and results in a change in behavior.

A stimulus is anything that can trigger a physical or behavioral change.

Explanation:

There are two main types of Stimuli, Firstly, ‘External’. An external stimulus is a stimulus that comes from outside an organism and causes a reaction. Secoddly, ‘Internal’.

Internal stimuli are changes to conditions inside the body, such as dangerous food in the stomach, viruses in the body, or lack of food or water.
