WHAT DOES SENSITISATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Sensitization

Sensitization is a non-associative learning process in which repeated administrations of a stimulus results in the progressive amplification of a response.

For example, repetition of a painful stimulus may make one more responsive to a loud noise.
