Sensitization is the development, over time, of an allergic reaction to a chemical. The chemical may cause a mild response on the first few exposures but, as the allergy develops, the response becomes worse with subsequent exposures.

after getting several different treatments and performing the dependent-variable task several times, participants in a within-subjects design may realize (become sensitive to) what the hypothesis is. Consequently, a participant in a within-subjects design may behave very differently during the last trial of the experiment (now that the participant knows what the experiment is about) than the participant did in the early trials (when the participant was na?e).
