Research Abstract |
In this research, underlying mechanism of human relationship-learning was investigated through experimental methods in consideration of recent findings in the field of classical conditioning of nonhuman animals. Several experiments revealed difficulties in obtaining a couple of phenomena in human learning situations, though they have been frequently found in animal conditioning situations. These facts imply that human relationship-learning should not be realized only on the basis of relatively simple algorithm such as association formation, which has been thought to be responsible for animal conditioning.
