Doplazy is a theoretical framework conceptualizing a physiological and neurobiological state of cognitive reluctance driven by short-term dopaminergic conditioning. The model explores how rapid dopamine spikes from modern digital stimuli lead to transient receptor desensitization, executive function fatigue, and subsequent behavioral inertia. This work establishes a foundational baseline for analyzing cognitive friction and motivation deficits in digitally saturated environments.
