Verbal behavior
, 1957
"... Evolutionary theory has always been plagued by scantiness of evidence. We see the products of evolution but not much of the process. Most of the story happened long ago, and little remains of the early stages. Especially few traces of behavior remain; only recently were there artefacts that could en ..."

have brought verbal behavior into existence. Speculation about natural selection is supported by current research on genetics; the evolution of a social enviroment or culture is supported by the experimental analysis of behavior. Strictly speaking, verbal behavior does not evolve. It is the product
Automaticity of social behavior: Direct effects of trait construct and stereotype activation on action
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 1996
"... Previous research has shown that trait concepts and stereotypes become active automatically in the presence of relevant behavior or stereotyped-group features. Through the use of the same priming procedures as in previous impression formation research, Experiment l showed that participants whose con ..."

The “What” and “Why” of Goal Pursuits: Human Needs and the Self-Determination of Behavior
, 2000

We discuss the SDT concept of needs as it relates to previous need theories, emphasizing that needs specify the nece ..."

Attitude-Behavior Relations: A Theoretical Analysis and
- Review of Empirical Research, Psychological Bulletin
, 1977
"... Research on the relation between attitude and behavior is examined in light of the correspondence between attitudinal and behavioral entities. Such entities are defined by their target, action, context, and time elements. A review of available empirical research supports the contention that strong a ..."

Automatically characterizing large scale program behavior
, 2002
"... Understanding program behavior is at the foundation of computer architecture and program optimization. Many pro-grams have wildly different behavior on even the very largest of scales (over the complete execution of the program). This realization has ramifications for many architectural and com-pile ..."

The model was tested for 658 employees who work on 62 different jobs
Dropout from higher education: A theoretical synthesis of recent research
- Review of Educational Research

"... Despite the very extensive literature on dropout from higher education, much remains unknown about the nature of the dropout process. In large measure, the failure of past research to delineate more clearly the multiple characteristics of dropout can be traced to two major shortcomings; namely, inad ..."

It is not uncommon to find, for instance, research on dropout that fails to distinguish dropout resulting from academic failure from that which is the outcome of voluntary withdrawal
