Reviews Thorndike's Animal Intelligence monograph on the relation between human and animal behaviour, the law of effect and research methods; Thorndike used experiment rather than anecdote on cats, dogs and chicks and accounted for behaviour through an account later called the law of effect without appeal to reason.
