🎁 Reward Sensitivity Calibration (Wanting vs Liking)

עקרון: "Wanting" (dopamine) ≠ "Liking" (opioids). Some kids want lots but enjoy little. Detect + recalibrate.

Wanting Score (Motivation)

85%

High dopamine reactivity

Liking Score (Pleasure)

35%

Low opioid satisfaction

Dissociation Detected

Child chases rewards (high dopamine drive) but doesn't enjoy them (low pleasure). Pattern of burnout/anhedonia.

🔧 Recalibration Strategy:

  • ✓ Reduce external rewards (points, badges) - they're not satisfying anyway
  • ✓ Increase social connection (praise, group achievements) - activates opioid system
  • ✓ Focus on mastery experiences (genuine success moments) - more satisfying
  • ✓ Build rest/recovery - dissociation often signals overstimulation
