Contingencies of Reinforcement. Chapter 5: Operant behavior. Quote 8

“The complex system we call an organism has an elaborate and largely unknown history which endows it with a certain individuality . . . Statistical techniques cannot eliminate this kind of individuality; they can only obscure and falsify it. An averaged curve seldom correctly represents any of the cases contributing to it ([Sidman, 1960; Tactics]).” (pp.111-112)
