From Habituation, Classical Conditioning, And Instrumental Conditioning To Stimulus Control, Aversive Control, And Their Applications To The Study Of Cognition, This Learning And Behavior Textbook Provides A Comprehensive Introduction To The Elementary Forms Of Learning That Have Been The Focus Of Research For Much Of The 20th Century. Applications Boxes Help You Understand How Findings From Animal Research Relate To Human Learning And Behavior, While Neuroscience Boxes Offer You Insights Into The Brain Activity Underlying Learning.

The book closely reflects the field of research it represents in terms of topics covered, theories discussed, and experimental paradigms described. Thoroughly updated with recent research and a new neuroscience box in each chapter, the seventh edition covers such topics as habituation, classical conditioning, instrumental conditioning, stimulus control, and aversive control as well as their applications to the study of cognition and to the alleviation of behavior problems. Biological constraints on learning are integrated throughout the text, as are applications boxes that relate animal research to human learning and behavior"--Publisher's website This textbook provides a comprehensive and systematic introduction to elementary forms of learning that have been the focus of research for much of the twentieth century.
