Contributed papers present the latest research in cognitive processes and human conditioning. Integrating recent studies in human conditioning processes with knowledge of contemporary animal conditioning, the text fills a gap in the literature by revealing human conditioning as a much more complex cognitive process than shown by most introductory psychology texts. Emphasizes the practical applications of contemporary human conditioning theory to the areas of psychopathology and psychotherapy. Coverage includes human Pavlovian autonomic conditioning and the cognitive paradigm, latent inhibition and human Pavlovian conditioning, Pavlovian conditioning and hemispheric assymetry, conditioning and perception, and the interaction of neurohormones with Pavlovian A and Pavlovian B conditioning in the causation of neurosis, extinction, and incubation of anxiety.
