Abstract
Knowledge of specific instances of melioration does not imply knowledg
e of the variables controlling behavior. Drug self-administration has
been successfully analyzed in terms of standard variables such as the
immediacy and magnitude of the drug reinforcer. An appeal to meliorati
on may not be necessary.
