Originally published in 1976, this volume contains new and original contributions of the time addressed to a related set of ideas concerning processes of memory in animals. The theme is that animals remember and that theories of animal learning must take this into account as well as the coding processes that have been assumed to be specific to human beings. The focus of the book is on processes, and some progress is reported in differentiating types of memory. The emphasis in applying animal work to studies of human memory is made not in terms of paradigms but in terms of processes implicated via performance in a variety of tasks. Also, many of the chapters reflect the usefulness of applying a memory framework to a variety of "nonmemory" paradigms. This work will be essential reading for all those interested in animal as well as human memory, and provided the most up to date and broadest examination of animal memory processes at the time, from both a theoretical and conceptual framework.

For over half a century, the Stevensa Handbook of Experimental Psychology has served as the definitive reference for the field. In an era when the field of experimental psychology appears to be experiencing much fractionation, the Stevensa Handbook of Experimental Psychology continues to serve as a cohesive reference unifying the diverse body of research. The Third Edition continues the rigorous tradition set by Stanley Stevens of adhering to a level of scholarship sufficient to serve the needs of academics, and a level of clarity to aid graduate students just beginning in the field. aeoRevised and updated edition of the definitive resource for experimental psychology offers comprehensive coverage of the latest findings in the field, as well as the explosion of research in neuroscience. aeoThe most reputable resource available in the field -- Stanley Smith Stevensa research and writing has influenced generations of experimental psychologists. aeoExpanded coverage -- from two to four volumes, including in--depth material on Methodology, Behavioral Genetics, and more.
