Educational psychology : developing learners / Jeanne Ellis Ormrod - 3rd ed. - New Jersey : Merrill, c2000. - xviii, 683p. : ill. (some col.) ; 25cm.
Includes bibliography and index
The last decade has seen important changes of emphasis within general psychology that make its theories more pertinent to education. Ten years ago the dominant psychology was that of Hull and his followers. Their emphasis on stimulus-response connections, reduction of primary drives, and reinforcement, while useful for explaining the learning of single tasks in the laboratory, seemed not to be very enlightening.
