Three experiments describe the consummatory behavior of 11-13-day-old rat pups during and following experience with a model aversive taste, quinine hydrochloride. Pups were observed while away from the dam and while suckling. Results show that pups actively reject quinine adulterated solutions in both situations. They do so by spitting the solution from the mouth when away from the nipple and by leaving the nipple and/or decreasing their sucking effort when with the dam.
三项实验描述了11至13日龄幼鼠在接触一种厌恶味觉模型——盐酸奎宁期间及之后的进食行为。在幼鼠离开母鼠以及吮乳时对它们进行了观察。结果显示，在这两种情况下，幼鼠都会主动拒绝掺有奎宁的溶液。当离开乳头时，它们会通过将溶液从口中吐出的方式来拒绝；当与母鼠在一起时，则会通过离开乳头和/或减少吮乳力度的方式来拒绝。
