Behavioral Immune System, Psychological Immune System, and General Psychophysical Health during COVID-19 Pandemic

Mind and Society, 2023
With innate biological immunity proving inept and an acute lack of effective SARS-CoV-2 medication/immunization, strict restrictive, preventive, and protective measures were introduced worldwide. Despite flattening the pandemic-growth curve, these were met with resistance and heightened psychopathology among the masses.

Zipf-scaling behavior in the immune system

Biosystems, 1996
The Zipf law, an approach to analyzing linguistic texts, was applied to study the Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTL) repertoire, one of the major components of the immune system. A Zipf-scaling behavior was observed in those CTL repertoires obtained in normal or conventional mice.

The Behavioral Immune System

2021
This chapter presents theoretical and empirical arguments in support of the existence of a defense system against pathogens called the Behavioral Immune System, which the authors argue complements the biological immune system and is characterized by cognitive, emotional, motivational, and social ...

DYNAMICAL BEHAVIORS OF A CLASS OF STOCHASTIC TUMOR–IMMUNE SYSTEMS

Journal of Biological Systems, 2023
In this paper, we consider a class of tumor–immune systems perturbed by the environmental noise and focus on the longtime behaviors. The existence and uniqueness of the globally positive solution to the tumor–immune system are proved using stochastic Lyapunov analysis and Itô’s formula.

Behavioral conditioning of the immune system

2002
Publisher Summary Both animal and human studies reveal that immune-system activity can be modulated by behavioral conditioning. Unconditioned stimuli (US) are pharmacological regulators of immune system activity, which are variously stimulatory or inhibitory to aspects of immune function.

An Artificial Behavioral Immune System for cognitive robotics

Advances in Artificial Life, ECAL 2013, 2013
The paper proposes the implementation of an artificial be- havioral immune system (ABIS) that could be integrated on a robotic platform. The ultimate goal is to have a form of per- ceptual processing to create the sensation of disgust (on more in general of discomfort) that may influence the behavior that is determined by the cognitive modules.

Behavioral and Motivational Effects of Immune-System Activation

The Journal of General Psychology, 2002
Immune-system activity induces changes in animal behavior such as decreased food intake, decreased exploratory behavior, increased sleep, and impaired cognitive functioning. These changes are mediated by proinflammatory cytokines, and the administration of cytokines produces the same profile of behavior change as do infection and inflammation.
