Contingencies of Reinforcement. Chapter 8: Behaviorism at fifty. Quote 7

“An adequate science of behavior must consider events taking place within the skin of the organism, not as physiological mediators of behavior, but as part of behavior itself. It can deal with these events without assuming that they have any special nature or must be known in any special way. The skin is not that important as a boundary. Private and public events have the same kinds of physical dimensions.” (p. 228)
