Divergent.points of view regarding social raise the more fundamental issue of just what social is. One area of convergence is a functional feedback view expressed in terms of self- reinforcement. This theme has a distinguished heri- tage in the traditions of the hew psychology and psy- choanalysis. Moreover, the core theme is the gradual process of operationally defining the laws of contiguity, effect, and observational learning. Three generations of social behaviorists have disputed whether one, two, or three factors are necessary to encompass social ac- tivity. The tacit agreement on functional feedback is historical evidence that the clinical and experimental traditions may have found their paradigm in an evo- lutionary behaviorism based on all three factors in the post-Darwinian psychologies of James, Freud, and Piaget
