Frustrative Nonreward Sample Clauses

Frustrative Nonreward. The last construct in NVS linked to the amygdala is Frustrative Non-Reward, reactions elicited in response to the withdrawal or prevention of reward (Amsel, 1958; Gallup, 1965; Xxxxxxx et al., 2009). Frustrative nonreward is distinct from both offensive aggression which, as an expression of dominance or competition for resources, is included in the social domain, and defensive aggression, one potential response to acute threat (NVS Working Group, 2011). Tye (2010) and Xxxxxxxxxxxx (2012) demonstrated that there was a distinct population of cells in the amygdala recruited after ‘frustrative events’ which predicted the intensity of response, and that they were unlike those neurons activated in response to freezing inducing shocks (Xxxxxxx et al., 2012). Frustration, harm avoidance, and fear are all powerful motivators of behavior, and the amygdala is involved in each construct, processing early autonomic and nonconscious stimuli that signal danger for instance, but it is also vital for the opposite mode of influence in Positive Valence Systems.

Upon request of Contractor, the Commission or designee shall ascertain the facts and extent of such failure, and, if such officer determines that any failure to perform was occasioned by any one or more of the excusable causes, and that, but for the excusable cause, Contractor’s progress and performance would have met the terms of the contract, the delivery schedule shall be revised accordingly, subject to the rights of the State under the clause entitled (in fixed-price contracts, “Termination for Convenience,” in cost-reimbursement contracts, “Termination”).
