Sensory-processing sensitivity versus the sensory-processing theory: Convergence and divergence
Two individual-difference theories focus on sensory sensitivity: one emanating from psychology—sensory-processing-sensitivity (SPS); and one from occupational therapy—sensory processing theory (SP).

Alexithymia and Sensory Processing Sensitivity: Areas of Overlap and Links to Sensory Processing Styles [PDF]
Alexithymia is a dimensional trait characterized by difficulties identifying and describing feelings and an externally oriented thinking (EOT) style. Here, we explored interrelationships between alexithymia and measures assessing how individuals process ...

Striatal Dopamine Signals and Reward Learning
We are constantly bombarded by sensory information and constantly making decisions on how to act. In order to optimally adapt behavior, we must judge which sequences of sensory inputs and actions lead to successful outcomes in specific circumstances ...

The striatum integrates sensorimotor and motivational signals, likely playing a key role in reward-based learning of goal-directed behavior. However, cell type-specific mechanisms underlying reinforcement learning remain to be precisely determined. Here,
