Deep Brain Reorienting sequence. The orienting response elicits tension in the forehead, around the eyes, or in the back of the neck in preparation for turning toward or away from salient stimuli. Shock may consequentially arise as the high-energy impact experienced in the body before any affective response. Affect, such as fear, rage, or grief, ensues after the initial orienting and shock responses.
