| Learning Theory | Hull | Corr I 358 Learning Theory/Hull: (Hullian Learning Theory, Hull 1952)(1): reduced all forms of motivationally-salient reinforcement to a single process of ‘drive-reduction’; as noted by Gray (1975(2), p. 25), the ‘Hullian concept of general drive, to the extent that it is viable, does not differ in any important respects from that of arousal’. >Arousal, >Reinforcement sensivity, >J. A. Gray. VsHull: at this time, there was a strong movement away from Hull’s grand theory of behaviour – which has now fallen by the wayside of science – towards a two factor theory of learning based upon reward and punishment systems. It was Mowrer’s (1960)(3) seminal work that contributed to this development: he argued that the effects of reward and punishment had different behavioural effects, as well as different underlying bases, and he specifically introduced the notion that central states of emotion (e.g., ‘hope’) mediate stimuli and responses. For a mediation to occur, there must be a mediating system. These general ideas entered mainstream psychology through the writings of such people as Konorski (1967)(4) and Mackintosh (1983(5)). >Stimuli, >Behavior. 1. Hull, C. L. 1952. A behaviour system.
