Innate releasing mechanism by Konrad Lorenz and Nicolaas Tinbergen in the 1930s.
Definition "Innate releasing mechanism":
- The phrase "innate releasing mechanism" derives from a traditional ethological idea. It speaks of a neuronal sensorimotor interface that acts as a go-between for the appropriate action pattern and a critical stimulus.
- Important concepts of classical ethology were created by Konrad Lorenz and Nicolaas Tinbergen in the 1930s, including the notions of inherent releasing mechanisms (IRMs), sign stimuli, and set action patterns.
- In reference to IRMs, Lorenz employed the phrase "Angeborenes Auslösendes Schema" along with a reference to a "neural filter" that picks out a few pertinent stimuli from a large number of sensory messages, or a "stored template" that is utilized for comparison with incoming sensory messages (Lorenz 1935).
- Innate releasing mechanisms (IRMs) are hard-wired brain networks that launch a predetermined action pattern, or predetermined series of behaviors, in response to particular stimuli (signs or releasers).
