Schlund, Michael W.; Cataldo, Michael F. – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005
Results of numerous human imaging studies and nonhuman neurophysiological studies on "reward" highlight a role for frontal, striatal, and thalamic regions in operant learning. By integrating operant and functional neuroimaging methodologies, the present investigation examined brain activation to two types of discriminative stimuli correlated with…

Gottselig, Julie Marie; Brandeis, Daniel; Hofer-Tinguely, Gilberte; Borbely, Alexander A.; Achermann, Peter – Learning & Memory, 2004
We investigated learning-related changes in amplitude, scalp topography, and source localization of the mismatch negativity (MMN), a neurophysiological response correlated with auditory discrimination ability. Participants (n = 32) underwent two EEG recordings while they watched silent films and ignored auditory stimuli. Stimuli were a standard…

Klausmeier, Herbert J.; And Others – 1976
Piaget's model of children's conceptual learning and development was compared with Klausmeier's Conceptual Learning and Development (CLD) model in a longitudinal study. The CLD model suggests four successive levels of concept learning: (1) concrete--recognizing an object which has been encountered previously; (2) identity--recognizing a known…
