title: Mind is back in control of pavlovian and skinnerian responses: was it ever away?
abstract: Introspections, anecdotes, mnemonics, and observations of large animals like us can only be adequately described in the mapping language of the mind/brain delineated by renaissance philosophers--time, space, sensations and reflections. But modern behaviorists, confused by this richness, sought clarification by adhering strictly to narrow paradigms, excluding the mind/brain, and inventing recondite neologisms. The cognitive map underground survived the behavioral storms. And psychology, the study of the mind/brain in all its wonders, is flourishing once again in respectability.
