Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Psychological Review, 1918, Vol. 25
Professor Watson has recently attempted a rigorously physiological interpretation of the learning process. He is especially anxious to avoid anyappeal to conscious guidance, or to conscious pleasure and displeasure, and 'to account for the elimination of useless movements upon purely objective grounds.' 4 It is not clear that he would Wish to reject teleology of the sort that is here proposed. In any case, I cannot see that his account of the matter, assuming it to be correct, is in essential disagreement with the above analysis.
