In my neighborhood, people shoot off fireworks in the days before New Years Eve. The first time I hear the fireworks, I am quite sure we are under attack! I jump in response to the loud booms. But, by the third day don't even notice the fireworks when they are set off. Fast forward to the 4th of July, and fireworks are set off in my neighborhood yet again the days before the 4th. According to the general principles of habituation, how am I likely to respond this time?

    i do not normally hear the fireworks all the time before that day 4th, but with each passing day, i start to hear them via a process usually called reverse habituation or i still do not hear the firework all before on the 4th due to the fact that i became habituated to fireworks over new year celebration

    Explanation:

    Habituation can simply be defined a a process of psychological learning. it involves a process whereby there is a decline/decrease in response to a stimulus after being exposed to it constantly. this habituation believes holds that human/animals may learn to ignore a stimulus due to consistent exposure to it.
