It is important for an animal to create memories of olfactory stimuli which threaten its survival.

"It's essentially impossible to present an olfactory stimulus that doesn't have an emotional valence to it."

A potential problem with this measure involves the generation of verbal labels that may enhance memory for olfactory stimuli.

Volatile compounds in these secretions may also serve as an olfactory stimulus for newborn appetite.

The amygdala participates in the hedonic or emotional processing of olfactory stimuli.

Homing behavior of pigeons not disturbed by application of an olfactory stimulus.

Many scientists use the term "olfactometer" to refer to a device used to study insect behavior in presence of an olfactory stimulus.

If the symptoms did not occur in the morning, they would be triggered by strong olfactory stimuli or by loud noises.

Perhaps they received some olfactory stimuli that convinced them of Mr. Arbor's innocence."

Odor identification requires the specific labeling of presented olfactory stimuli, unlike odor recognition.

The lateral orbitofrontal cortex is activated by pleasant visual, tactile, and olfactory stimuli.

Audible, visible, tactile, textual or even olfactory stimuli (odorizer) to alert the occupants.

Further, stimuli transmitted to the limbic system cannot be consciously blocked and all olfactory stimuli therefore influence our emotions.

This corresponds with chemoreception (olfactory stimulus triggered by certain food chemicals), a trait found in actual species of leech.

Through the assignment of associations to odors as well as non-odor stimuli, olfactory stimuli can gain meaning.

Dysosmia, also known as olfactory dysfunction, is the impairment of olfactory stimuli processing leading to an altered sense of smell.

Females have been found to have an advantage in recalling auditory and olfactory stimuli, experiences, faces, names, and the location of objects in space.

Furthermore neurons in the orbitofrontal cortex respond to the visual,and/or olfactory stimuli in addition to the gustatory stimulus.

Children with fragile X have very short attention spans, are hyperactive, and show hypersensitivity to visual, auditory, tactile, and olfactory stimuli.

Acetylcholine is also regarded as an important neurotransmitter involved in the habituation of olfactory stimulus, though the exact means through which it operates are not yet clear.

In another intensive fMRI study by Wicker & colleagues (2003), disgust reactions to visual and olfactory stimuli were compared.

While receptor cells respond to olfactory stimuli and result in the perception of smell, trigeminal nerve fibers in the olfactory epithelium respond to pain.

Dopamine increases aversion learning for olfactory stimuli as well as visual stimuli, and reduces approach learning for stimuli that are followed by rewards.

Kirk had no idea what the smell was like, but his body had been visually stimulated to produce the same physiological reaction the olfactory stimulus was supposed to produce.
