Science and Human Behavior, Chapter 8: The Controlling Environment, Quote 8

Science and Human Behavior“What happens when an organism responds “as if” a stimulus had other properties? Such behavior seems to indicate that the “perceptual” world—the world as the organism experiences it—is different from the real world. But the difference is actually between responses—between the responses of two organisms or between the responses of one organism under different modes of stimulation from a single state of affairs.” (p. 138)
