Reward Sensitivity Development is a developmental psychological construct that refers to the maturation and dynamic regulation of an individual's neurobehavioral responsiveness to rewarding stimuli, distinguishing it from related affective processes by its specific focus on the acquisition and modulation of motivation, approach behavior, and positive affect in response to incentive contexts across ontogeny.
