For evidence of why I think what I said above, try "Behaviorism" by John
Watson, although he focused mainly on the classical conditioning model he
lays the ground for what followed. B.F. Skinner's "Science and Human
Behavior" offers and exhaustive treatment of the subject and Skinner is
surprisingly readable. He originally planned to be a writer. His B.A. is in
English and it shows.
Skinner was very dubious about "thinking" but thought that, to the extent
that it could be defined, it too is control by the environment. Aaron Beck's
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy fairly successfully attempts to directly apply
the principles of behavioral control specifically to thinking.
Krimel,
Did Skinner and Watson make objective observations and reports in the
say way as the anthropologists of LILA? With the same observational
limitations and prone to the say errors?
