I have been using Mazur for the in-class text. It is a bit tough for the students (it is a 200 level class) but they manage to get through it.
For the lab, I use my own manual. The students do a series of 9 experiments:
1) magazine training
2) bar pressing
3) extinction
4) discrimination
5) FR schedules
6) extinction again (after FR schedule - looking for PREE)
7) chaining with a complex response (like Breland and Breland)
8) Superstition
9) Design your own project (worth double points)
If you like, I can send off a copy of what I use.

TIPSters For many years I have taught a Skinner-based Animal/Rat Lab course. I have never been satisfied with the course text and lab manuals that I have used for that course. Any TIPS suggestions?. Thanks, Michael Lavin
