A reprint from 1964, this book discusses conditioning methods based on a Pavlovian orientation and their behavioral, neurophysiological, and psychiatric aspects. Ban (psychiatry, Vanderbilt U.) outlines the development of conditioning procedures, from the writings of Locke to the experiments of Pavlov, and discusses Pavlovian concepts, elementary and complex behavioral observations, and neurophysiological and neuropathological discoveries from the perspective of psychiatric disorders.
