Summary: This text for an introductory undergraduate course uses common life issues, such as relationship difficulties, addictive behavior, and fears and phobias to introduce basic principles of learning and behavior. Emphasis is on principles rather than theory, with much material on animal research findings and how they apply to human behavior. Especially interesting for students are boxes on the application of behavioral principles to romantic relationships, in the form of an advice column.
