Latent inhibition
Latent inhibition is inhibition of the learning of a paired association between a conditioned stimulus and unconditioned stimulus due to prior repeated unpaired exposure of the conditioned stimulus. The inhibition on learning that occurs with the stimulus preexposure is latent because it is observed only when the stimulus is subsequently paired.
