Description
How do animals learn? By what means can animals be conditioned? This volume of the acclaimed Handbook of Perception and Cognition,
Second Edition, reviews such basic models as Pavlovian conditioning as well as more modern models of animal memory and social
cognition. Sure to represent a benchmark of a vast literature from diverse disciplines, this reference work is a useful addition to any
library devoted to animal learning, conditioning behavior, and interaction.
Audience
Advanced students, academics, comparative psychologists, researchers in cognition, education, perception, and decision-making.
