About this product

Product Information

Bring the theories of learning to life using SNIFFY, THE VIRTUAL RAT! Instructors praise Sniffy, a realistic digital rat in an operant chamber (Skinner Box), for his ability to give students hands-on experience in setting up and conducting experiments that demonstrate the phenomena of classical and operant conditioning. Users begin by training Sniffy to press a bar to obtain food. Then, they progress to more studies of more complex learning phenomena. Throughout each, a series of "Mind Windows" enables students to visualize how Sniffy's experiences in the chamber produce the psychological changes that their textbooks discuss in connection with learning. Available on a cross-platform CD-ROM, the Pro version of Sniffy includes 40 exercises that cover every major phenomena typically covered in a Psychology of Learning course. The CD-ROM comes with a Lab Manual that walks users through the steps necessary to set up classical and operant conditioning experiments that closely resemble the experiments discussed in learning texts. (Screen shots are included for both Macintosh and Windows users.) The manual also includes instructions on how to print or e-mail results, so that Sniffy can become part of students' homework assignments and term papers.

Sniffy - a good alternative
I had to buy it for a class, but it has been informative and interesting. The book provides a digital rat to practice classical conditioning. An alternative that not only appeases animal rights activates, but also make the process more convenient for students. The program can be installed and run on any computer. Saving your progress allows you to stop when you need to and come back when you want to. But let's be honest, its biggest appeal is that hour-long experiments can be completed in under 5 minutes. It's definetly made classical and operant conditioning a little less hands-on, but a lot more accessible.

Hard!
Maybe there is something wrong with me, but I found this program somewhat confusing. The book was hard to follow, but then again maybe I just don't understand it and everyone else doesn't have a problem. Either way, I won't buy another book like it again.
