    Area of Science:

    • Behavioral science
    • Neuroscience
    • Psychology

    Background:

    • Learning occurs through imprinting and conditioning.
    • Conditioning has two paradigms: classical and operant.
    • Classical and operant conditioning form the basis of modern learning theory.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the practical and heuristic implications of conditioning for disease.
    • To highlight the evolution of learning theory and its application to disease treatment.
    • To examine the renewed interest in conditioning as a research tool due to advancements in brain function and biochemistry.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of historical experiments in classical conditioning (Pavlov).
    • Examination of work in operant conditioning (Skinner).
