INTRODUCTION
With new researches, explanations
provided but the basic principles of
behaviorism appeared not satisfy all
learning scenarios. New theories came
into view which maintained some of the
behaviorist concepts but excluded
others, and added new ideas which later
came to be associated with the
cognitive views of learning. The neo-
behaviorists, then, were a transitional
group, bridging the gap behaviorism
and cognitive theories of learning.
