Psicothema ISSN: 0214-9915 [email protected] Universidad de Oviedo España Aparicio, Juan José Los modelos animales en los actuales estudios sobre el aprendizaje humano Psicothema, vol. 3, núm. 1, 1991, pp. 59-72 Universidad de Oviedo Oviedo, España Available in: http://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=72703104 Abstract Animal models in current studies on human learning.- In this paper, the current contributions of animal research to contemporary conceptions in human learning are analysed. Three areas of inquiry which are yielding important results to the progress of our ideas about human learning are examined. First, the current status of the studies of operant conditioning, belonging to the skinnerian tradition are described. Second, animal minimodels of human behavior and their application to the study of problematic behaviors are explained, and, finally, the new views about pavlovian conditioning and their relationship with the modem conexionist theories recently raised in human cognitive psychology are dealt with. Keywords Classical conditioning; operant conditioning; conexionism.
