Rotate trigger cue formats, timing, and delivery channels periodically to counter habituation and maintain attentional capture.

Why This Is a Principle

This principle derives from nervous system habituation to predictable stimuli (The nervous system habituates to repeated, predictable…) and neuroplasticity detecting statistical regularities (Neural Plasticity Enables Lifelong Automatic Learning). It prescribes variation as a counter-strategy to trigger decay. The lesson explicitly identifies habituation as the mechanism, making this a strong principle.
