Aversion therapy is a behaviour-therapy technique aimed at reducing unwanted habits (such as smoking) by repeatedly pairing the behaviour or its cues with unpleasant stimuli (like electric shock) or unpleasant physiological reactions (like nausea induced by drugs such as Antabuse), so that the behaviour becomes associated with discomfort and is avoided.
