This volume presents the views and findings of behaviorally and biologically oriented investigators invited to participate in The University of Iowa's biennial learning and memory symposium. While chapters vary in their scope and depth of coverage, they are all amply referenced so that researchers, teachers, and students can obtain background information appropriate to their respective needs.

First published in 1986. This book is devoted to behavioral, neurophysiological, and neurochemical methods and findings in classical conditioning. It is devoted to a set of model Pavlovian, or classical conditioning, preparations in the rabbit. Although primary emphasis has been placed on the nictitating membrane response (NMR), the set includes, in addition, eyelid, eyeball retraction, jaw movement, and heart rate responses.
