Description
Classical Conditioning and Operant Conditioning: A Response Pattern Analysis by W.W. Henton and I.H. Iversen is a comprehensive scholarly volume that explores the complex domain of behavioral interactions. Since the publication of Ferster and Skinner's influential work on "Schedules of Reinforcement", research in behavior analysis has focused on providing systematic accounts of behavior control, with an emphasis on scientific methodology and careful attention to controlling variables. This pioneering effort extends the competing response analysis across all experimental schedules, including both classical and instrumental conditions, as well as interactions between the two. The authors' focus on overt behavioral interactions begins with simple cases involving one operant and one respondent, gradually revealing more complex and subtle interactions as the analysis expands. By examining interactions between multiple recorded responses, Henton and Iversen reveal increasingly precise empirical specifications of reciprocal interactions in response probabilities, independently of conventional procedural labels. This volume provides a valuable contribution to the field of psychology, offering insights into the fundamental principles governing behavioral control.
