ABSTRACT
Chapters 5 through 9 addressed basic learning—primarily the learning of single discriminations or response strategies. For basic learning, the learned behavior is directly influenced by a primary reinforcer. Chapters 10 through 13 address learning configurations that are more complicated than those required for basic learning. Chapter 10 considers the systemic requirements placed on the system when the learning involves the interaction of various discriminations in a single context. The discriminations interact because they involve the same individuals or hosts. A given individual may be classified with specific other individuals in the population to express one discrimination and grouped with different individuals in the population to express a different discrimination.
