Which THREE of the following are true regarding habituation and dishabituation?
1:Habituation involves a gradual reduction in the magnitude of the response to repeated presentation of the response of a stimulus
2:In dishabituation, the response returns when a salient extraneous stimulus is presented just before a trial with the habituated stimulus
3:Habituation is caused by sensory-motor fatigue
4:Habituation occurs as a consequence of the repeated presentation of a single event
