Describes 3 experiments with a total of 454 albino male Charles-River rats. Conditioned taste aversions induced by ionizing radiation and lithium chloride (LiCl) were compared with both forward (CS-UCS, conditioned stimulus-unconditioned stimulus) and backward (UCS-CS) conditioning paradigms. Taste aversions were produced when a saccharin CS preceded or followed a 100-r radiation UCS by as much as 6 hrs, but a 2%-of-body-weight,. 15-mol LiCl UCS was effective only in CS-UCS pairings. It is argued that the ineffectiveness of an LiCl stimulus in UCS-CS pairings was not attributable to differences in the" strength" of the respective LiCl and radiation doses in that these doses yielded comparable aversions in forward pairings. These results are related to inadequacies of a" sickness" model of taste aversion conditioning.(22 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
