Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The behavioural activation system (BAS) is responsible for activating approach behaviours in response to the anticipation of reward. It is involved in the motivation to seek out positive experiences and is associated with positive affect and impulsivity. The behavioural inhibition system (BIS) is responsible for inhibiting behaviour in response to cues of punishment or nonreward.
