Examines the relative adequacy with which descriptive behaviorism and cognitive learning theory can account for the findings of verbal conditioning experiments, and the methodological and epistemological assumptions on which these interpretations are based. Methodological problems associated with the techniques employed for the assessment of mediating cognitive states (awareness) are discussed, and evidence is presented to support the view that" what is learned" in verbal conditioning is awareness of a correct response-reinforcement contingency. The implications of verbal conditioning findings for the more general question of learning without awareness are considered, and it is concluded that the investigation of awareness in relation to other behavior is requisite to the development of an adequate theory of human learning.(2 p. ref.)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved)
