Books in the Psychology Revivals series

First published in 1982, this work represents one of the first attempts to bring together the perspectives of a variety of different researchers investigating a specific, well defined content domain. It presents theoretical views and research findings investigating the early acquisition of addition and subtraction skills by young children.

Originally published in 1982, this book provides rich evidence of the relevance of the temporal aspects of behavior. The generalized areas of learning, memory, operant scheduled behavior, task performance, vigilance, mood and motivation and their rhythmic components are explored in varying detail.

First published in 1977, these examples of research and scholarly argument were collected in honour of Sidney W. Bijou. Since 1955, Bijou had worked almost exclusively within the approach variously labelled as the functional analysis of behavior, the experimental analysis of behavior, operant conditioning, or Skinnerian psychology.

First published in 1984, most of the contributors were trained as or by social psychologists. All share a common approach, focusing on the individual as s/he is buffeted about by social forces and copes with these forces. All consider situational and psychological factors and apply their expertise to the study of health-related issues.

In many areas of psychology, a number of issues have characterized methodological evolution of the discipline, including questions regarding context and reductionism, or laboratory versus field research. Originally published in 1985, this volume explores some of the issues characterizing work on health, environment, and behavior.
