This book collects the major theories of quantitative analyses and applies them in a useful and meaningful way. Given the widespread use of quantitative analyses of behavior across disciplines, as its focus as a scientific approach to learning theories, this volume will be of great value to students, instructors, and researchers. This volume could also serve as a primary text for undergraduate courses in learning theory, and graduate courses in related disciplines.
One goal of behavioral science is to understand and predict human and animal behavior by studying how organisms interact with their environment. These predictions can be quite general and descriptive, or more precise and quantifiable. Quantitative analysis of behavior involves understanding behavior mathematically, relying on statistical models to study the relationship between behavior and environment. One advantage of this approach is that it allows for the experimental testing of behavioral theories, as well as how such theories generalize to the lives of people. These techniques also enable scientists to examine complex relationships by predicting how humans and animals behave with greater accuracy. Quantitative analyses of behavior are adopted in various disciplines and subfields of behavioral science including psychology, sociology, neuroscience, pharmacology, criminology, ethology, and behavioral medicine.
Quantitative approaches to understanding behavior have been prominent since as early as the 1950s. However, despite considerable advancement in precisely predicting and understanding behavior-environment relationships, different quantitative approaches and theories of behavior have not been collected in a single volume. This has led to researchers, scholars, academics, and even practitioners to struggle with learning about this scientific method, or the conditions under which quantitative models of behavior are useful. Moreover, although the quantitative analysis of behavior is often taught to graduate students in fields of behavioral science, instructors are often faced with relying on individual (often outdated) published articles to provide students, as no definitive text on this approach exists. As methods of quantitative analyses grow, this has become increasingly difficult and challenging for graduate program instructors.
In summary, the core principles of quantitative analysis of behavior are foundational to a broad spectrum of disciplines within behavioral science, and this book fosters interdisciplinary collaboration that shapes and expands each field's capabilities and applications. Moreover, this book aims to better prepare and enable students of behavioral science to explore behavior in increasingly sophisticated ways, addressing complex real-world questions.
Valdeep Saini, PhD is Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Disability Studies at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. His primary research interest is the translation of basic behavioral sciences to areas of societal importance. His work covers a broad spectrum of topics as he works with both humans and animals to better understand the lives of organisms. He serves on the editorial boards of several journals in the fields of behavior analysis and psychology and has published over 60 peer-reviewed papers in more than 10 different behavioral and/or psychology journals. These publications span the scope of clinical behavior therapy, issues of societal importance, the experimental analysis of behavior, and applied animal behavior. He is also a co-editor of the book Behavior Analysis: Translational Perspectives and Clinical Practice. He is a former recipient of the Organizational Behavior Management Network Innovative Research Award and the Ontario Association for Behavior Analysis Outstanding Researcher Award. Outside of his academic role, he enjoys outdoor winter activities, including hockey and snowboarding.

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
