When a preconditioned gustatory cue (taste or odor) is conditioned in compound with a second gustatory cue, conditioning to the second cue is augmented. This enhanced conditioning of the second cue is noteworthy because studies with other forms of classical conditioning have shown blocked conditioning to the second cue. This new phenomenon has been termed augmentation, and it has implications for the study of taste and odor interactions, formal models of learning, and clinical interventions with cancer patients.

is part of a JSTOR Collection. How does conditioned taste aversion differ from typical classical conditioning?One way in which conditioned taste aversion is somewhat different from the basic classical conditioning procedure is that it can result after one pairing. It usually requires several pairings of the NS and US for the NS to become a CS and elicit a response.
Which way are conditioned taste aversions unusual compared to other learning?Conditioned Taste Aversion (CTA) is the readiness to associate the taste of food to illness (a type of CC). CTA is unique compared to other forms of CC because it only takes one association for the conditioning to occur (sticks the first time).
What is unique about taste aversion?This is considered an adaptive trait or survival mechanism that enables the organism to avoid poisonous substances (e.g., poisonous berries) before they cause harm. The aversion reduces consuming the same substance (or something that tastes similar) in the future, thus avoiding poisoning.
What is a conditioned taste aversion What features of classical conditioning does conditioned taste aversion involve?Conditioned taste aversion is a learned association between the taste of a particular food and illness such that the food is considered to be the cause of the illness. As a result of the learned association, there is a hedonic shift from positive to negative in the preference for the food.
