Rotation-induced conditioned rejection in the taste reactivity test. 1999

Department of Psychology, Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.

The taste reactivity test was used to evaluate the ability of motion sickness to produce conditioned rejection reactions, a putative measure of nausea in rats. Following three conditioning trials, rats displayed conditioned rejection reactions during an intraoral infusion of a rotation-paired saccharin solution. This is the first demonstration of conditioned rejection produced with a non-pharmacological emetic agent and provides support that the conditioned rejection reaction may serve as a rat model of nausea.
