This assessment may be as automatic and unconscious as it is with the rat that avoids electric shock or the toddler who stays away from the hot stove; but, conscious or not, there is something that decides that actions which lead to shocks or burning sensations do not ‘work’ and, consequently, should not be repeated. \nTo my mind, this way of analysing behavior is illuminating because it brings out the governing principle of induction. But it is incomplete because it persistently avoids mentioning that in order to answer the question what works, one needs a notion of value, no matter how elementary or unconscious that notion might be.","highlights":Ӷ^"jQuery3210881436949605492":^°°,^"jQuery3210881436949605492":^°°Ӻ,"text":"","order":"mw-content-text","category":"Prämisse3","data_creacio":1579284297816°
