This illustrates "aversive conditioning".
This is a kind of conduct molding in which bitter or bad boosts are related with bothersome or undesirable conduct that will be adjusted or nullified, as the utilization of nausea instigating drugs in the treatment of liquor abuse. Or in general, it is a type of psychological treatment in which the patient is presented to a stimulus while at the same time being subjected to some type of distress.
