Behavior Analysis of Language & Cognition

Editors: Steven C. Hayes, Linda J. Hayes, Masaya Sato, & Koichi Ono

Description: This book, originating from the Fourth International Institute on Verbal Relations, provides a contemporary look at the nature of stimulus relations and verbal events, and their impact on cognitive activity. The book covers a range of basic and applied topics, but throughout the book, authors return to a common question: how do language and cognition work? Some of the best authors in the field present their answers to that question here.
