Abstract:
Delayed access to HIV care and treatment in sub-Saharan Africa meant that the early years of HIV scale-up were characterized by a largely North-to-South transfer of knowledge and resources. Clinicians from wealthy countries were among the first to gain experience with antiretroviral treatment and care of people living with HIV and shared key lessons with their colleagues in sub-Saharan Africa. Ten years later, lessons from Africa learned from the remarkable achievements of HIV programs now have the potential to inform the response to the US domestic epidemic.

For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...
Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness
Avoidance learning occurs when an organism learns that a specific behavior can prevent an unpleasant outcome. For example, a student who receives a bad grade may start studying harder to avoid future poor grades. This behavior persists even when the negative outcome is no longer present. Avoidance learning is powerful because it maintains behavior in the absence of the...
