Taxonomic Abstraction in Psychobiology
If a body of knowledge in a scientific discipline is to be extended beyond empirical observation and into the realm of laws and principles, one of the fundamental requirements is a taxonomy which supports the systematic integration of observations. Psychobiology benefits from taxonomies provided by biology and chemistry, which include not only object oriented taxonomies such as species or chemical elements, but also process oriented taxonomies, s…

Misuse of analysis of covariance when treatment effect and covariate are confounded
Failure of the Interaction Paradigm as a Test of Hull Vs Spence
The interaction paradigm, frequently used as a test of Hull vs Spence, is held to be biased against Hull for several reasons: (1) Black (1965) has demonstrated that Spence could account for either outcome. (2) The probability of rejecting Hull is not controlled. (3) The 2 × 2 design minimizes the chances of finding for Hull. (4) One of Hull's postulates is disregarded. A suggestion is made for a better design to study the pertinent empirical rela…
