David Has Been Running Away From German Shepherds Ever Since
He Was Bitten By A German Shepherd Two Years Ago.
Reynelda Has Trouble Tracing A Complex Shape With A Pencil When She
Is In Kindergarten, But She Can Do It Quite Well By The Time She Is In

Maybe, Although The Change May Simply Be Due To
Physiological Maturation.
Maybe, But Only If She Is Being Reinforced For Tracing Accurately.

Although It‘S A School Night, Dean Plays Video Games Until Well
Past His Usual Bedtime. As He Becomes More Tired, He Finds It

Sign Of Weakness Or Inability, He Begins Asking For Help Much More
Frequently.
Research Examines Learning In Tightly Controlled Settings And
Research Examines Learning In Real-World Settings.
