The OR and significance

I Maltzman. Pavlov J Biol Sci. 1990 Jul-Sep.

Abstract

A brief review was conducted of past and current research and theory as well as future implications of the problem of significance and the OR. Research and theory in the field is judged to be at a choice point: advance to interesting and important problems integrated with biobehavioral research or enter a blind alley of pseudo-problems derived from computer metaphors and cognitive folk psychology.
