It begins with an analysis of what functions and systems must exist for any organism or machine to perform an unlearned act, that is, with an analysis of what must be \"wired into\" the organism or machine. Once the basics of unlearned responding have been established, the authors then systematically show how learning mechanisms can be layered onto that foundation in ways that account for the performance of new, learned operations that eventually culminate in the acquisition of higher-order operations that involve concepts and language. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis work is of interest to various practitioners engaged in analyzing and creating behavior: the ethnologist, the instructional designer, the learning psychologist, the physiologist-neurobiologist, and particularly the designer of intelligent machines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Siegfried Engelmann,Donald Steely\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0805845402\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780805845402\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Psychology Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 534\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 1.33d","brand":"Siegfried Engelmann","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48658931941631,"sku":"9780805845402","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a4126126-0f5c-4b3b-a910-62e4b6721f04.jpg?v=1781199024","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/inferred-functions-of-performance-and-siegfried-engelmann-9780805845402","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
