1. Does human behavior differ from the behavior of other species? Why or why not?
2. Describe the procedure for experiment 1. What were the different groups and what contingencies were in place for each?
3. What sources of control were examined in experiment 2? What did this experiment tell us?
4. What did these studies tell us about rule-governed and contingency-shaped behavior?
5. What relation does rule-governed behavior have to verbal behavior?
