    Nearly 250,000 protesters descended on the District of Columbia to participate in the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963. Despite warnings of disorder and racial upheaval, the world witnessed a peaceful gathering that culminated with the historic “I Have a Dream” speech by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The powerful symbolism of demonstrators standing united and rallying at the Lincoln Memorial on the centenary of the Emancip…

  • Liking, wanting, and the incentive-sensitization theory of addiction

    Open AccessKent C Berridge, Todd E Robinson et al.ARTICLEAmerican Psychologist2016

    Rewards are both "liked" and "wanted," and those 2 words seem almost interchangeable. However, the brain circuitry that mediates the psychological process of "wanting" a particular reward is dissociable from circuitry that mediates the degree to which it is "liked." Incentive salience or "wanting," a form of motivation, is generated by large and robust neural systems that include mesolimbic dopamine. By comparison, "liking," or the actual pleasur…

  • Up from the Ashes

    Todd E RobinsonARTICLESouls2010

    This article explores the meaning of “post-racial society” through an examination of the Macedonia Church of God in Christ burnings in the immediate aftermath of the election of Barack H. Obama as the nation's first Black president. By tracing the continuity of racial violence against Blacks, in particular, the founder of Macedonia Church, this article contends that a post-racial society does not exist and that rather race hatred continues to tra…

  • The incentive sensitization theory of addiction

    Open AccessTodd E Robinson, Terry E Robinson et al.ARTICLEPhilosophical Transactions of the…2008

    We present a brief overview of the incentive sensitization theory of addiction. This posits that addiction is caused primarily by drug-induced sensitization in the brain mesocorticolimbic systems that attribute incentive salience to reward-associated stimuli. If rendered hypersensitive, these systems cause pathological incentive motivation (‘wanting’) for drugs. We address some current questions including: what is the role of learning in incentiv…

  • Addiction

    Todd E Robinson, Terry E Robinson et al.ARTICLEAnnual Review of Psychology2002Citada por: 32Referencias: 1

    The development of addiction involves a transition from casual to compulsive patterns of drug use. This transition to addiction is accompanied by many drug-induced changes in the brain and associated changes in psychological functions. In this article we present a critical analysis of the major theoretical explanations of how drug-induced alterations in psychological function might cause a transition to addiction. These include: (a) the tradition…

  • Incentive‐sensitization and addiction

    Open AccessTodd E Robinson, Terry E Robinson et al.ARTICLEAddiction2001

    The question of addiction concerns the process by which drug‐taking behavior, in certain individuals, evolves into compulsive patterns of drug‐seeking and drug‐taking behavior that take place at the expense of most other activities, and the inability to cease drug‐taking, that is, the problem of relapse. In this paper we summarize one view of this process, the "incentive‐sensitization" view, which we first proposed in 1993. Four major tenets of t…
