The excited state of awareness described in the prompt is known as priming, which is when exposure to a stimulus influences a person's response to a subsequent stimulus. In this case, the stimulus is the investigation of a topic, and the subsequent response is the increased awareness and recognition of elements associated with it. Acculturation refers to the process of adopting or assimilating to another culture, the dyadic effect refers to the mutual influence between two people in a relationship, framing refers to the way information is presented to influence perception, and reciprocity refers to the exchange of goods or services with the expectation of mutual benefit. None of these terms accurately describe the phenomenon described in the prompt.
