Chapter 4 Corrections

(1)  Under the sub-heading Thorndike & Puzzleboxes in Section I. A., in the sentence immediately before the extended quote by Thorndike, the "an" should be "and".  For those of you with the library version, this occurs on page 99.

(2) Under the sub-heading Inhibition In Extinction & Punishment in Section I. B., in the last sentence of the sixth paragraph, "of" should be "off" (page 102)

(3)  Under the sub-heading Mediated Learning & Secondary Reinforcers in Section I. B., in the paragraph that starts "Another example is rather cute," "claims" in the last sentence should be "claim" (p. 104).

(4)  In the second paragraph under the sub-heading Interference in Section I. B., the phrase "partial reinforcement and extinction" should be in italics (page 105).
 
(5)  In the fifth paragraph under Section III. A., the word "ransom" in the second sentence should be "random" (page 117).

(6)  Under the sub-heading Learning Prior to Responding in Section III. D., in the eigth sentence of the third paragraph, the phrase "as was the case" should be "as may have been the case" (page 120).

(7)  In the first paragraph under Section IV, "theses" in the third sentence should be "these" (page 124).

(8)  A little further on, in the second paragraph before the section entitled Tolman's Expectancy Approach, "purposed" in the seventh sentence should be "purpose" (page 126).

(9)  A little further on, in the second paragraph before the section entitled A Note On The Interrelationship, in the sentence that starts "But Tolman had a gift of finding," please change the "of" to "for" (page 127 for those with the library version).

That's it for now;  let me know if you see anything else that may need correcting...
 
 (3/16/99) - one more:  In Section III.C, in the last sentence of the first paragraph, "latent inhibition" should, of course, be "latent learning" (p. 119).
