Detailed explanation-1: -Habituation is a simple form of learning in which an animal stops responding to a stimulus, or cue, after a period of repeated exposure. This is a form of non-associative learning, meaning that the stimulus is not linked with any punishment or reward.
Detailed explanation-2: -Habituation occurs when animals are exposed to the same stimuli repeatedly, and eventually stop responding to that stimulus.
Detailed explanation-3: -Habituation is the reduction of a behavioral response to a stimulus after repeated presentations of that stimulus (Rankin et al., 2009). Habituation can occur to stimuli detected by any of your senses. You may become habituated to loud sounds, bright lights, strong odors, or physical touch.
Detailed explanation-4: -Habituation is defined as a behavioral response decrement that results from repeated stimulation and that does not involve sensory adaptation/sensory fatigue or motor fatigue.
Detailed explanation-5: -Habituation is a form of non-associative learning in which an innate (non-reinforced) response to a stimulus decreases after repeated or prolonged presentations of that stimulus.
