American psychologist, representative of neobehaviorism. He is the author of the concept of “cognitive maps” and the developer of cognitive behaviorism. Tolman proposed to supplement the classical stimulus-response scheme with a new intermediate phase \u2013 a cognitive representation (a mental map or model that the organism forms on the basis of experience). Some provisions of the theory:
\n1) Behavior is determined not only by external stimuli, but also by internal cognitive structures that determine the reaction.
\n2) The body, gradually mastering the situation, builds a cognitive map of the path that needs to be followed to solve the problem.
\n3) He identified a special type of learning \u2013 latent (hidden), which takes place when there is no reinforcement, but this type of learning is able to change behavior. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
