37. Polyvagal Theory 4 – Expectancy and Neuroception
About This Lesson
This lesson explores how Expectancy from Julian Rotter’s Social Learning Theory and Neuroception from Polyvagal Theory connect mental predictions with bodily responses.
You may recall from Lesson 9: Polyvagal Theory 1 – Introduction that these mind-body systems are constantly evaluating safety and threat. This lesson expands on how beliefs, perceptions, and nervous system states influence motivation, learning, and behavior.
By understanding how we anticipate outcomes and detect safety or threats, we can develop greater awareness of self-regulation, adaptability, and decision-making.
