This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca's work, On Anger, book 2

It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 2 about his discussion of the three stages or movements involved in the emotion of anger. In the first stage, we grasp an appearance and are affected by it in some manner that can lead to anger. The second stage involves judgement, reason, will, and assent, and we have some control at this point. The third stage is the full emotion of anger, and is at that point outside of the control of the angry person

This week we’re starting a new series with Dr Susan Friedman.  Susan is well known around the world for her very popular on-line course: How Behavior Works: Living & Learning With Animals).  She has co-authored chapters on behavior change in five veterinary texts, and her popular articles have been translated into 17 languages. She shares many of those articles on her web site: behavior works.org It’s a great resource for all of us who want to learn more about the natural science of behavior.

Susan is a member of the clicker expo faculty.  Her presentations at the March Clicker Expo prompted this conversation on schedules of reinforcement.  In this first part Susan gets us all grounded in the subject with a review of the basics.  As always, Susan makes clear what can often be confusing definitions and distinctions.
