misattribution of arousal  

Definición

  • Misattribution of arousal occurs when people incorrectly identify the source of their physiological arousal. For example, one might incorrectly attribute elevated heart rate to the presence of a person sitting close by, when this physiological response may actually be caused by some recently ingested caffeine.
