This undergraduate textbook introduces the natural science approach to behavior and describes the efforts of researchers to understand the kinds of experiences that produce learning, the circumstances under which learning in one situation carries over to another situation, the effects of different reinforcement schedules, the durability of learned behavior, and the limitations of learning. The fifth edition adds a 150-page workbook at the end of the text. Pages are perforated. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Now in a paperback format with a new, free workbook built right into the text! LEARNING AND BEHAVIOR looks at learning as an evolutionary mechanism. Chance's book is stimulating, interactive, and filled with high-interest queries and examples. Based on the theme that learning is a biological mechanism that aids survival, this book embraces a scientific approach to behavior but is written in a lucid, clear language. The workbook portion of the book requires students to design experiments to test certain questions raised in the textbook. It also asks the students to use graphs to illustrate and summarize key experimental findings. Other exercises require students to apply the material, some of which require a pet, a roommate or a willing friend to complete. Thought questions require students to synthesize the concepts that they find in the text.
