Suggested French translations of expressions in the field of operant conditioning.
A word already accepted in French psychological usage is preceded by an asterisk. To facilitate translation and reading of foreign literature, the French equivalent of the form closest to the English term is used whenever acceptable. When French has no one-word equivalent, the English term is kept, as is usual in other scientific vocabularies. When a word is difficult to translate into French because it would sound, say, poetic or ridiculous in a scientific context, an abstract word or expression is used instead. English abbreviations are maintained so that experimental reports can be easily read in either language.
