Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Clark L. Hull was the psychologist who attempted to advance a theory of behavior in terms of quasi-mathematical postulates and colligeries that were amenable to experimental work. Guthrie and Tolman, although important behavioral theorists, did not focus on mathematical models in their theories. Skinner's approach, while behavioral, was more focused on operant conditioning and the relationship between behavior and reinforcement.
