Advanced topics in the study of operant behaviour including core material on stimulus and schedule control of behaviour, and animal perception and cognition.
This course covers advanced topics in the study of operant behaviour. It is intended that the course will run on a seminar basis, rather than formal lectures. The content will include core material on stimulus and schedule control of behaviour, and animal perception and cognition, but will otherwise be determined by the interests of students. Laboratory work will contribute substantially to the course assessment, and there will be ample opportunity for students to develop their own experimental work. Reading will be from recent issues of Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes and Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior.PSYC334 Learning and Behaviour Analysis is strongly recommended as preparation for this course.
Subject to approval of the Head of Department.
