A note on the role of olfaction in taste aversion learning

摘要: A taste aversion was induced by the single or multiple pairing of saccharin and methotrexate. In one experiment presence in environment condtioned animals prior to test trials resulted an attenuation aversion, that is, facilitated extinction conditioned response. a second consumption plain water significantly reduced when were tested other provided with saccharin, CS solution. The data suggest primary stimulus generalization form olfactory cues can influence manifestation behavior decreasing magnitude avoidance response fluid control animals.
