Question and answer

what role do neurotransmitters play in psychological functioning?

Information is carried by biochemical substances called neurotransmitters, which we will talk about in more detail shortly. [ The terminal buttons and the dendrites of other neurons do not touch, but instead pass the information containing neurotransmitters through a Synapse. Once the neurotransmitter leaves the axon, and passes through the synapse, it is caught on the dendrite by what are

termed Receptor Sites. ]

If you mean Belongingness, it is the human emotional need to be an accepted member of a group. Whether it is family, friends, co-workers, or a sports team, humans have an inherent desire to belong and be an important part of something greater than themselves. The motive to belong is the need for "strong, stable relationships with other people." This implies a relationship that is greater than simple acquaintance or familiarity. The need to belong is the need to give and receive affection from others.
