The unfortunate thing about some of these books, such as Hock's _40 Studies_, is that they often are collections of summaries, not reprints of the originals. Also, I'd like to know what criteria are used for selection. Although behavioral psychology has contributed much to psychology in general, Skinner's (1948) "Superstition in the Pigeon," wouldn't be the article I'd select for a book on ground-breaking research. It is in Hock.

I mentioned to my research class that there are some basic articles in psychology that are frequently cited and should be read by all undergrad psychology majors. I mentioned Bandura's Bobo doll study and Miller's 7+- 2. What articles would you add to the list? Are there any contemporary articles that you see as potentially having the same status down the line? Susan J.
