Definition
| flavor-calorie learning (rats learn that sweetness is associated with nutrients, not almond flavoring) |
|
|
Term
| when rats are pre-exposed to saccharin, they are more likely to |

| learn that flavor is associated with nutrients (latent inhibition for calories so weakens overshadowing for flavor by weakness) |

Term
| long delay learning can be prevented by |

| taste switches odor into the gut-defense system, learns bad smelling things will probably be poisonous |

Term
| 2nd order conditioning whereby odor & taste become |
|

| strongly associated so that odor "reminds" the animal of the averted taste; converse to Garcia "gate" hypothesis |
