Abstract：
:The ontogeny of the orientation of the wood-cricket, Nemobius sylvestris, was studied experimentally in a variety of biotopes. In each experimental situation, the straightness of the routes taken by crickets improves with age. These results demonstrate that, depending on the variety of the constraints within each living area, various local individual solutions to the problem of orientation develop during ontogeny.

杂志文章abstract：:B.F. Skinner argued that the science of behavior would progress more rapidly without appealing to theories of learning. He also suggested that theories in a quite different sense were possible, but that the science of behavior as of 1950 was not ready for them. The following analysis distinguishes between Skinner's tw...
