boundaries for existence, whereas in the city the

learning theory of Thorndike represents the

Learning is the result of associations forming
between stimuli and responses. Such associations
or "habits" become strengthened or weakened by the
nature and frequency of the S-R pairings. The
classic example of Thorndike's S-R theory was a
cat learning to escape from a "puzzle box" by
pressing a lever inside the box. After much trial

satisfaction or pleasure with meaning. It is one
thing to ask "How" (what Science does), another to

"What for." For instance: people often do
something because it gives them pleasure or

encroaching and expanding, global ising
capitalism. Socialism "proper", as a state
economic model and ideology seems to have been
banished to the margins of the world scene. The

and totalitarianism that have ensued wher...

In the preceding pages we dealt with certain
definitions of the words (frequently used
interchangeably) dealing with illusion and glamor.
We found that: Illusion is primarily of a mental
quality and was characteristic of the attitude of
mind of those people who are more intellectual

usually understood. It is the misunderstanding of
ideas and thought-forms of which they are guilty,
and of misinterpretations. Glamor is astral in
character, and is far mo...

We have discussed the implementation of
organizational behavior principles in the company

need to add these principles to the agenda, "that
employee benefits are unrelated to both worker
performance and perceived organizational support"
(Lambert, 2000, p. 801). The Board requested that
we investigate these principles before adding
them. The results of that investigation follow.

Shopping plays an important role in our lives. It
is interesting to study the psychology of
shopping, i. e. what makes the customer buy this

complicated process which is going beyond just
acquiring a new thing in exchange of money. This
