This paper proposes several hypotheses and research strategies for exploring possible psychological factors contributing to multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS). The hypotheses are based on concepts of individual response stereotypy, situational response specificity, classical conditioning of chemical-induced responses, and psychophysiological reactions to active and passive coping orientations. Hypotheses regarding hypersensitivity to perception and/or aversiveness of chemical stimulation also are presented. Strategies for evaluating these hypotheses are described based on experimental literature on psychophysiology and psychophysics.
本文提出了几个假设和研究策略,以探索可能导致多重化学物质敏感症(MCS)的心理因素。这些假设基于个体反应刻板性、情境反应特异性、化学诱导反应的经典条件作用以及对主动和被动应对取向的心理生理反应等概念。还提出了关于对化学刺激的感知和/或厌恶过敏的假设。基于心理生理学和心理物理学的实验文献描述了评估这些假设的策略。
