Question

Rhonda had tartar sauce with her fish one night. The next morning she was nauseated and sick for much of the day. The next time she was offered the chance to go out for fish, she felt queasy and declined. Her queasiness at the thought of fish with tartar sauce was probably due to:_________.

Answer 1

Answer: a conditioned taste aversion

Explanation: Conditioned taste aversion simply refers to the avoidance of a particular food due to a feeling of illness or allergies developed after previously consuming such food in the past.

Conditioned taste aversion is a classical conditioning because the sickness developed by Rhonda after consuming that fish changes her behavior towards fish with tartar sauce afterwards.
