Taste Aversion

QUESTION

Have you (or someone you know) ever had the experience of eating a particular food, then becoming ill, and then avoiding that food at all costs in the future?  In learning theory terminology, this is known as “taste aversion.” 

Using your specific experience as an example, discuss how classical conditioning principles can be used to explain the development of taste aversion, and contribute to your behavior following the conditioning experience.

In addition, explain two ways that taste aversion differs from typical classical conditioning paradigms.  Again, use the experience described above as your specific example.
