Special Issue on Learning and Behavior

This special issue aims to bring together scholars working on both basic and applied aspects of learned and instinctive behavior. Areas of interest include: classical and operant conditioning, reinforcement schedules, avoidance and punishment, stimulus control, comparative cognition, observational learning, motor skill learning, and choice. Both the classic studies and the most recent developments and trends in the field are explored.

• Early learning theories
• Effects stimuli have on learning and behavior
