Learning has been shown to be influenced by the temporal order or way that the CS and UCS are paired. Identify and describe three ways that the CS and UCS can be paired. What effect, if any, does each pairing have in terms of learning?

Conditioned taste aversions:

You are stuck doing a certain type of math problem until you suddenly realize how to solve those types of problems. At that point, you have achieved or experienced:
