A startle response is a physiological response to an unexpected intense stimulus, such as a burst of loud noise or the slamming of a door. This stimulus is known as the startle-eliciting stimulus. Responses to the startle-eliciting stimulus include increases eye blinking, heart rate, skin conductance, and muscular responses.
