Stretching the Imagination (Counterpoints: Cognition, Memory, and Language)
by Cesare Cornoldi, Robert H. Logie, Maria A Brandimonte, Geir Kaufmann, and Daniel Reisberg

This issue spans virtually all domains of psychological investigation, from development to perception, from computer to neuropsychological models of human cognition. Recent studies have shown that there is a strong relationship between memory and mental representation, but others have shown that images are open to reinterpretation and manipulation, and therefore a...

Der Autor entwickelt ein anatomisch und neurophysiologisch orientiertes Verstandnis fur Gefuhle, fur die Sexualitat, fur die trugerische Gewissheit von Erinnerung und...

Adaptive Learning and the Human Condition presents the basic principles of classical (Pavlovian) and instrumental (Skinnerian) conditioning in a more coherent and expansive manner than is the case in other textbooks. Learning is defined as an adaptive process through which individuals acquire the ability to predict, and where possible, control the environment. This overarching definition enables integration of traditional Pavlovian and Skinnerian principles and terminology and makes explicit why...
