Dishabituation is a learning technique used to test whether an animal or a preverbal infant can differentiate between two or more stimuli. In this technique, the subject is presented with a repeated sound, such as 'Bah', until they habituate, meaning they stop responding. Then a different sound, such as 'Gah', is presented, and if the subject reacts differently or looks towards the sound, it shows they can differentiate between the two sounds.
